release feature for the tailgate, allowing hands-free
tailgate opening. To activate, push and release the
Tailgate Release button on the key fob twice within five
seconds. The tailgate door will unlatch, and slowly lower
into the open position.

the vehicle can be used to release the tailgate. An indicator
light may also signal when the tailgate is open (if equipped).

• In PARK or NEUTRAL
• Stationary (0 mph / 0 km/h)
NOTE:

latched.
NOTE:
Pull back on the tailgate firmly after closing to ensure it is
securely latched.

pickup box with the doors open.
Opening
The tailgate must be latched closed to open the swing doors.
