Emergency liftgate safety release

2C_EmergencyTailgateOpen

To unlock and open the liftgate manually from inside the cargo area, perform the following:

  1. Insert a long, flat object, such as a key into the opening at the bottom of the liftgate.

  2. Slide the latch in the direction of the arrow to unlock the liftgate.

  3. Push the liftgate open.

  • Never allow anyone to occupy the cargo area of the vehicle at any time. The cargo area is a very dangerous location in the event of a collision because it is part of the vehicle’s crush zone.

  • Use the release lever for emergencies only.
