There are 3 or 4 bolts on the inside of the tail gate. Remove them and the handle should come out. It should be atached to 2 rods that go to the locking mechanism. More than likely one of the small plastic keepers has broken and the rod has come off from the handle. To open the tailgate, simply pull inward on these rods. The small plastic keepers and the plastic bezel around the handle (which is subject to breaking when removed) can be found at any parts house. The clips are usually $2 for an assortment pack and the bezel (which is subject to breaking when removed) is about $15.

How do you open 1987 plymoth reliant tailgate?

To open the tailgate you have to use the key in the tailgate lock. If it is like mine, it does not always release immediately and you just need to push on the tailgate while the key is turned. You should be able to hear the latch release and then you just lift the tailgate up. If the shock absorbers for it are worn out it will be a slow hard lift to get it to open completely. l
