Liftgate Cinch Latch Cover for Tesla Model Y (2021) | 1584544-00-B

The Unsung Protector of Your Model Y’s Rear Access

Why Your 2021 Model Y Needs This Cover

• Weatherproofing for Longevity: Rain, snow, or even a misty morning—moisture can seep into the liftgate latch mechanism, causing corrosion over time. The 1584544-00-B cover seals tightly around the latch, blocking water and road spray. It’s made from a UV - resistant, weatherproof plastic that won’t warp or fade in sunlight, ensuring your latch stays rust - free for years.
• Impact Protection: Loading and unloading heavy items can sometimes result in accidental bumps against the latch. This cover acts as a buffer, absorbing minor impacts that could otherwise dent or damage the delicate latch components. It’s thick enough to protect without adding unnecessary bulk to the liftgate area.
• Aesthetic Harmony: A scratched or exposed latch can be an eyesore on your Model Y’s otherwise pristine exterior. The 1584544-00-B cover matches the car’s original finish, blending seamlessly with the rear bodywork. It gives your liftgate a clean, factory - fresh look, maintaining the overall aesthetic appeal of your Tesla.

Built to Last Through Model Y Adventures

• Durable Plastic Construction: The cover is injection - molded from high - density polyethylene (HDPE), a material known for its toughness. It can withstand temperatures from - 40°F to 180°F, making it suitable for all climates. HDPE is also resistant to common automotive chemicals, so it won’t break down from exposure to brake fluid, gasoline, or cleaning products.
• Precision Fit: Engineered to the exact specifications of the 2021 Model Y liftgate, the cover snaps into place with ease. The edges are designed to fit flush against the liftgate surface, creating a seamless seal. No gaps, no loose parts—just a perfect fit that stays put, even during rough rides or frequent liftgate use.
• Easy Installation: You don’t need to be a mechanic to install this cover. With the lower liftgate trim removed (a straightforward process as per Tesla service manual), simply insert a small flat - head screwdriver between the latch and the old cover (if present) and gently pry it away. Then, align the new 1584544-00-B cover with the latch and press it firmly into place. The installation procedure is the reverse of removal, and you can have it done in minutes.

Signs Your Liftgate Latch Cover Needs Replacement

• Visible Damage: Cracks, chips, or large scratches on the cover are obvious signs it’s time for a replacement. A damaged cover not only looks bad but also compromises its protective function, leaving the latch exposed.
• Loose Fit: If the cover feels wobbly or has come off completely, it’s lost its ability to seal and protect. This could be due to worn - out clips or a cover that has warped over time.
• Corrosion Around the Latch: If you notice rust or corrosion on the liftgate latch, it’s likely that the cover has failed to keep moisture out. Even if the cover itself looks okay, it may have small gaps or holes that allowed water to penetrate.
