The Chevrolet Tahoe tailgate lock do not have an emergency release inside the car. The tailgate actuator has stop functioning on my car and there no way for me to open the door. Not even trying to open with a key, because there is no key option to open the door on this model on the outside tailgate. Since, Chevrolet failed to place a release inside the car. I feel that this is a serious life or death issue. If my kids are in the car trying to escape a fire or car submerged under water. There will be no way for them to escape. This item need to be corrected and fixed. I'm finding several incidents on the internet were the locking unit has failed. This is a serious safety issue.
