LIFTGATE (UTILITY)
WARNING:Make sure to close and latch the liftgate to prevent
drawing exhaust fumes into your vehicle. This will also prevent
passengers and cargo from falling out. If you must drive with the
liftgate open, keep the vents or windows open so outside air comes into
your vehicle. Failure to follow this warning could result in serious
personal injury.
Note:Be careful when opening or closing the liftgate in a garage or
other enclosed area to avoid damaging the liftgate.
Note:Do not hang anything, for example a bike rack, from the spoiler,
glass or liftgate. This could damage the liftgate and its components.
Note:Do not leave the liftgate open while driving. This could damage
the liftgate and its components.
