Err, could we have a little more detail in what you mean by dodgy? Adjustment and/or
tightening is possible if your description can be a little better.

Some people are like a Slinky ........ not really good for anything, but you still can't help
but smile when you shove them down the stairs

You can adjust things back there, but as Steve says, we need to know what's dodgy. Is it not shutting properly, is it sticking, is it shutting but rattling once in place?

and if it's still in warranty I would suggest taking it back to the dealer. Some parts for the tail gate have been upgraded so would be changed free of charge.
