Wind Buffeting
Wind buffeting can be described as the perception of pres-
sure on the ears or a helicopter-type sound in the ears. Your
vehicle may exhibit wind buffeting with the windows down,
or the sunroof (if equipped) in certain open or partially open
positions. This is a normal occurrence and can be mini-
mized. If the buffeting occurs with the rear windows open,
then open the front and rear windows together to minimize
the buffeting. If the buffeting occurs with the sunroof open,
adjust the sunroof opening to minimize the buffeting.
LIFTGATE
The liftgate can be unlocked or locked pushing the UN-
LOCK or LOCK button on the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
transmitter, the Keyless Enter-N-Go™ (Passive Entry)
LOCK/UNLOCK button underneath the left side of the
accent bar, which is located on the liftgate below the glass or
by activating the power door lock switch located on either
front door trim panel.
For further information on Keyless Enter-N-Go™ (Pas-
sive Entry), refer to “Keyless Enter-N-Go™” in “Things
To Know Before Starting Your Vehicle”.
NOTE:The liftgate cannot be unlocked or locked with
the manual door lock plungers on the door trim panels or
the door lock cylinder on the driver’s door.
To open the unlocked liftgate, squeeze the handle and
pull the liftgate toward you. Gas props will raise and
support the liftgate in the open position.
NOTE:
• In the event of a power malfunction to the liftgate, an
emergency liftgate latch release can be used to open
the liftgate. The emergency liftgate latch release can be
accessed through a snap-in cover located on the lift-
gate trim panel.
