With the power liftgate, when the door-ajar status is reached before the closing of liftgate, the easy closer system is activated, and the liftgate is fully closed automatically. If an abnormality is present to the easy closer system, check the switches. When no abnormality is present to the switches, check the use method of liftgate. (When the liftgate lock release handle is operated manually, and if the liftgate is left as is without being opened, a door-ajar status may occur. Therefore, be sure not to leave the liftgate in the middle of operation.)
