Dodge Durango 2016 Owner's Manual page 41

If one of the vehicle doors is open, and the door panel
switch is used to lock the vehicle, once all open doors
have been closed, the vehicle checks the inside and
outside of the vehicle for any valid Passive Entry RKE
Key Fob. If one of the vehicle's Passive Entry RKE Key
Fob is detected inside the vehicle, and no other valid
Passive Entry RKE Key Fob are detected outside the
vehicle, the Passive Entry System automatically unlocks
all vehicle doors and chirps the horn three times (on the
third attempt, ALL doors will lock, and the Passive Entry
RKE Key Fob can be locked in the vehicle).
To Unlock/Enter The Liftgate
The liftgate passive entry unlock feature is built into the
electronic liftgate handle. With a valid Passive Entry RKE
Key Fob within 3 ft (1.0 m) of the liftgate, push the
electronic liftgate handle for a power open on vehicles
equipped with Power Liftgate. Push the electronic lift-
gate handle and lift for Manual Liftgate vehicles.
THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE 39
NOTE: If the vehicle is unlocked, the liftgate will open
