A tailgate lock in a car is a mechanism designed to secure and lock the tailgate, the hinged door or gate at the rear of the vehicle. It is an essential feature that provides added security and prevents unauthorized access to the cargo area or trunk of the car.

Typically, a tailgate lock is connected to the central locking system of the car, allowing it to be locked and unlocked along with the rest of the doors. This can be done using a key, a remote key fob, or even through a button inside the car. When the lock is engaged, it prevents the tailgate from being opened from the outside, ensuring that any valuable items stored in the cargo area are safe and protected.
