Land Rover Part Number: LR088570 - Tailgate Latch
LR088570 is a tailgate latch that secures the tailgate by engaging with the striker in the rear luggage compartment and releases when the latch is actuated. The latch provides the primary mechanical connection between the tailgate and the vehicle body, containing a catching mechanism and a release interface; it is designed to withstand repeated impact and vibration while maintaining positive engagement. Faults such as worn or corroded catch surfaces, bent levers or contaminated internals can prevent full engagement or smooth release, causing poor closure, rattles or difficulty opening - replacement restores the correct engagement geometry within the lock control assembly.
