[QUOTE="Larry Michael, post: 1041051, member: 71722"] We've got some weather coming in today so I thought I'd post this question here before I have the opportunity to take things apart. 2010 LTD here. Has anyone had the top plastic trim piece on their tailgate come loose? The left side started wobbling when I gripped it and I don't want to accidentally break it off. I presume some plastic fasteners have broken. But are they integral to the part, requiring a whole new one, or is it fastened in place in another way? Looks like Torx screws holding the main inside cover in place so once I take those out I should be able to see what is going on. But if anyone has experience with this problem I'd like to hear suggestions for repair. Edit: Of course once I posted this, the "similar threads" showed one regarding a 2007 model. But since I don't know what broke yet, I'm still looking for current options. I did see that Pfeiffer wholesale Ford parts has that molding (7A2Z-7840602-BA) for $89.25. But if I needed the whole part would I also need some additional parts to hold it in place? [/QUOTE]
