** GruvenParts.com Fix for Rear Power Lift Gate Actuators !
"Are you having issues with the rear lift gate actuator on your 2007-2017 GM SUV – OEM Part Number 3501872, 13503467, 15163842, 15839037, 13502698, 15779874 ?
If so, we would love to hear about it !
Please send an email to Paul@GruvenParts.com with your issues and check out the info below.
We are currently working on a solution for these problematic rear lift gate actuators common to Cadillac Escalade, SRX, Buick Enclave, GMC Acadia, Tahoe, Suburban, Yukon, Terrain, Traverse and other GMC SUV’s from 2006-2017 with power rear lift gates.
See this youtube link for more info :
has already developed several solutions for these otherwise great vehicles, including brass power fold mirror gears and high torque motors, high torque door lock motors, strengthened door handle inserts, and brass power seat height gears.
Visit this link to see all we have done for GM Vehicles thus far :

Now, we are actively searching for the next project to tackle !
We plan to redesign the problematic plastic gears within the GMC rear lift gate mechanism which are prone to stripping out and rendering the rear lift gate totally unusable. Our solution will incorporate brass gearing designed for the life of the vehicle and cost many times less than just replacing the lift gate actuator unit with another GM unit made with faulty plastic gears.
If you are having issues with the rear lift gate actuators and want to be part of a FREE BETA TEST GROUP then please email paul@gruvenparts.com
Thanks!"

GRUVENPARTS.COM STRENGTHENED BRASS REAR POWER LIFT GATE GEARS FOR 2006 + GM TRUCKS - Click Here for the Product Page !
** Product Description **
GruvenParts.com is pleased to announce this replacement strengthened BRASS helical spur gear to replace the problematic plastic spur gear found in the rear lift gate actuators on 2006-Present GM trucks including Acadia, Traverse, Enclave, Escalade, Tahoe, Suburban, Yukon, Denali and other GM trucks with a power operating rear lift gate.
As many have discovered, the rear hatch power lift gate in these SUV's utilizes a mechanism which contains a large plastic spur gear that easily strips out, rendering the electric rear lift gate inoperable. When this problem occurs, you need to dismantle the interior panel of the rear lift gate to access the power lift gate actuator, a very time consuming process. Of course the replacement GM lift gate actuator will also come with a cheap, plastic spur gear which will soon strip out and fail, and the whole process repeats.
Don't waste time or hard earned money on more GM parts that will also soon fail!
GruvenParts.com has addressed this issue by designing a strengthened helical spur gear made from solid gear BRASS which is suited to handle the stresses involved in operating the power lift gate mechanism. Once the power lift gate actuator is removed from the vehicle, it’s a simple process to open the top case and remove / replace the discrepant plastic spur gear with the GruvenParts.com high strength brass gear.
This product carries a LIFETIME WARRANTY! Provided you don't burn the vehicle, or otherwise smash the lift gate actuator, we will cover this part FOR LIFE. You would only be responsible for shipping under this warranty.
** Installation Instructions **
Please visit the YouTube link provided on the product page of the GruvenParts.com website by clicking on the link above for instructions on how to remove the actuator from the vehicle without a working power rear lift gate actuator and replace the problematic plastic spur gear.
** Application **
This strengthened brass gear replaces the plastic gear found in the power lift gate mechanism P/N 13-58-14-05 (13581405), 13-50-18-72 (13501872), 13-50-34-67 (13503467), 15-16-38-42 (15163842), 15-83-90-37 (15839037), 13-50-26-98 (13502698), 15-77-98-74 (15779874), 13-58-14-05 (13581405), and 931-107.
