A new, novel and useful automobile tailgate guard comprising a folding or recoiling mat, removably installed in: the trunk area of an automobile with a relatively flat trunk cargo area; or the cargo area of a vehicle with a hatchback or swinging door access, such as a SUV, station wagon, van, or mini van. When folded in place, the automobile tailgate guard lies flat down against floor at the threshold of the of the cargo area. When unfolded, one panel of the automobile tailgate guard remains fastened in place inside the threshold of the cargo area, while the other panels extend out through the open hatchway (hatchback door raised or swing away doors open) to provide at least one flap of material which covers the threshold, bumper and rear end area of the vehicle. When extended the automobile tailgate guard provides a clean place to sit at the tailgate of the vehicle, preventing road grime from the rear bumper and vehicle panels from getting on clothing. When extended the automobile tailgate guard provides a shield for a person leaning into the cargo area of the vehicle to prevent clothing from becoming soiled against the bumper and rear panel of the vehicle.
