Manual Liftgate Operation
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2017 GMC Acadia. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The operator has the option to disable the power liftgate operations by selecting the "OFF" position on the interior liftgate rotary switch. The releasing and cinching for the liftgate latch will function normally, however, the operator must manually pull the liftgate open and push the liftgate closed. All power liftgate operations will be suspended for as long as the liftgate rotary switch is in the "OFF" position.
