What NHTSA recorded

The tailgate child lock can be opened from inside when the child lock is engaged. The feature to prevent the tailgate from being operated from the inside of the station wagon may not function properly. Consequence of defect: if a child is not properly secured in an approved restraint system, as required by many state laws, and is allowed to ride in the rear compartment, he/she may open the tailgate inadvertently and fall out into the traffic.

Remedy

Replace tailgate latches.
