Emergency Release for Opening
Endgate/Liftgate
1. Peel back or slit the carpet locally to expose the
access hole in the trim panel.
3. Pry the release lever toward the passenger's side
until the glass latch pops open.
4. Reattach the carpet securely.
2. Use a thin screwdriver
to reach through the
access holes in both
the trim panel and the
hardware cover.
Endgate-Mounted Spare
If your vehicle has an endgate
carrier, you must move the carrier arm out of the way
to open the glass.
Here's how to move the arm:
1. Squeeze the release handle to free the carrier arm.
2. Swing the carrier arm away from the endgate.
You may need to give it a slight tug.
3. To latch the carrier arm, swing it toward the endgate.
