Liftgate – Frequently Asked Questions
Why won't my power liftgate function?
Make sure the transmission is in park
(P), ensure nothing is obstructing the
liftgate path and there is not excessive
weight on the liftgate. If there are
continued issues, the battery voltage
may be low or other system issues.
See an authorized dealer.
Stopping the Liftgate Movement

to the liftgate while it is in motion. This
