To open a broken tailgate on a Ford Ranger, first check for any visible damage or obstructions that may be preventing it from opening. If the latch mechanism is jammed, you can try using a flathead screwdriver to gently pry it open. If that doesn't work, accessing the tailgate from inside the truck bed or removing the tailgate panel may be necessary to manually release the latch. Always consult your vehicle’s manual for specific instructions related to your model.

Use a flat head screwdriver to pry open the latches
To open a broken Ford tailgate, first, check if there’s any visible damage or obstruction to the latch mechanism. If the latch is stuck, try using a flathead screwdriver to pry it open gently. If the tailgate is locked and the key or remote isn't working, you may need to access the lock mechanism directly from inside the tailgate panel by removing screws and lifting the panel off. If these methods fail, consider consulting a professional for repairs.
