I did not use my tailgate much on my 2017 model, but from what I remember it has mechanical latches that hold the tailgate up and electrical latch lock for security.
Meaning even electrical malfunction will release the lock, the latches will still hold the tailgate up.
The lock assemble has whole harness going to it, what operates camera and light as well.
I’m not familiar with the design. If you pull the handle when it’s locked, does it release the latches so that when you do (or it does) eventually unlock it, it falls? Maybe that’s the concern. If not then nothing to worry about.
