Strut LINCOLN MKC 2015 Owners Manual

If the liftgate falls after the liftgate has
stopped in the open position, you may hear
four short warning tones. This indicates
excessive weight on the gate or a possible
gas strut failure. Have an authorized dealer
check the system if you still have the issue
after you remove the load.
