Cargo Area Features - Dodge DURANGO 2022 Owner's Manual

When the liftgate button on the key fob is pushed two
times, the turn signals will flash to signal that the liftgate
is opening or closing (if Flash Lamps with Lock is enabled
in the Uconnect settings), and the liftgate chime will be
audible. The chime can be turned on or off through the
Uconnect Settings page 135.

NOTE:
 In the event of a power malfunction to the liftgate, an
emergency liftgate latch release can be used to open
the liftgate. The emergency liftgate latch release can
be accessed through a snap-in cover located on the lift-
gate trim panel.
 If liftgate is left open for an extended period of time, the
liftgate may need to be closed manually to reset power
liftgate functionality.
WARNING!
During power operation, personal injury or cargo
damage may occur. Ensure the liftgate travel path is
clear. Make sure the liftgate is closed and latched
before driving away.
NOTE:
 The power liftgate buttons will not operate if the vehicle
is in gear or the vehicle speed is above 0 mph
(0 km/h).
 The power liftgate will not operate in temperatures
below −22°F (−30°C) or temperatures above 150°F
(65°C). Be sure to remove any buildup of snow or ice
from the liftgate before pushing any of the power lift-
gate switches.
 If anything obstructs the power liftgate while it is
closing or opening, the liftgate will automatically
reverse to the closed or open position. After multiple
obstructions in the same cycle, the liftgate will auto-
matically stop and must be opened or closed manually.
 There are also pinch sensors attached to the side of
the liftgate. Light pressure anywhere along these strips
will cause the liftgate to return to the open position.
 If the liftgate is only partially open, push the liftgate
button on the key fob twice to operate the liftgate.
 If the liftgate release handle is pushed while the power
liftgate is opening, the liftgate motor will disengage to
allow manual operation.
WARNING!
 Driving with the liftgate open can allow poisonous
exhaust gases into your vehicle. You and your
passengers could be injured by these fumes. Keep
the liftgate closed when you are operating the
vehicle.
 If you are required to drive with the liftgate open,
make sure that all windows are closed, and the
climate control blower switch is set at high speed. Do
not use the recirculation mode.
