Review on 🚪 Maxpow Tailgate Struts Lift Support Hatch Support Liftgate Cylinder | Compatible With 2008-2014 Town & Country Grand Caravan | Hatch Shocks Hatch Struts (2PCs) | 6124 by Ron Turner

The new brackets were weaker than the worn stock brackets

We bought these to replace the stock struts on our 2013 T&C as the tailgate gave a little when opening automatically. When I opened the box the replacement parts were a bit thinner than stock which wasn't necessarily a problem but it should have been. After installing new replacement parts, we pressed the automatic opener and to our great surprise, the door only opened about 3/4. 4 ways up. We figured the cooler temperatures might mean it would take a few cycles to fully expand, so we left it on for a few days. After 4 days of raising and lowering, the door has not improved. It is very frustrating to order an "exact replacement" and find out that it is a poor quality product. Lesson learned.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Replacement availability
