When the rear lock stops answering the power-lock button, the Dorman tailgate lock actuator motor 937-663 is the electric drive that moves the tailgate lock between locked and unlocked, helping bring power locking back to the back of your vehicle. It is a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications, including the 2009-2012 Ford Escape, 2008-2011 Mazda Tribute and 2009-2011 Mercury Mariner. Dorman also catalogs this part as an integrated door lock actuator for the trunk.
Signs this part may need replacing include a tailgate that won't lock or unlock with the power locks while the other doors respond, clicking or buzzing from the tailgate area, or lock operation that works only some of the time. These symptoms can also come from a blown fuse, damaged wiring or a faulty switch, so diagnose the cause first. If the actuator motor is the cause, this unit replaces it. See the Buyer's Guide tab for complete application details.
