Video tutorial
In this video, see that a tailgate that closes by itself after reaching its maximum height is a common fault in cars with automatic or assisted lift tailgates, like the Lexus RX350. The problem is almost always with the tailgate struts, which contain pressurised gas that helps lift the tailgate and keep it in position once raised. They fail because over time the internal gas loses pressure or escapes through worn seals; without the necessary force, they cannot counteract the weight of the tailgate, which then falls. The solution is a new pair of struts, which can be found on Amazon with code B0DDKMX4V2 for £34.99, with free shipping. The replacement is very simple: hold the tailgate up with a stick, detach the safety clips at the base of the strut, pull the ball head from its forked seat, repeat on the other side, and fit the new ones in reverse order. You will hear a "click" when the ball is secured.
