The recall affects model year 2017 through 2019 Ford F-250s, F-350s, and F-450 Super Duty trucks. The problem stems from the possibility for water to get inside the tailgate's electrical wiring system, which could short circuit and activate the latch-release switch in the tailgate handle, allowing the tailgate to open. This could lead to the loss of cargo in the truck bed if the truck is in motion, and possibly cause a crash, although Ford is not aware of any related injuries or accidents.
Ford is working to notify owners, and consumers can call customer service at (866) 436-7332 for more information. Dealers will modify the tailgate wiring to prevent any accidental releases.

In second place, right after Netflix, was the dating app Tinder. Tinder only began charging its users for its service in 2015, making its high ranking even more impressive.
