Default Rear Life Gate Drops 6-8 Inches After Opening

What's up with this?
Maybe Shocks on Gate? Only 30,000 Miles.
Anyone have this problem?
Does it after Auto Opening.

Just had that happen to me on my power gate. They just replaced the gas strut and all was good.

Dealer replaced my gas strut at 24,000 miles (under warranty) for the same problem. Only takes them a few minutes.
