“I have had trouble with the liftgate on this car for at least 2 years. I have had it to the dealership at least 5 times, and recently to an independent mechanic. No one has been able to rectify this problem. The liftgate has gone from intermittenly opening to now not opening at all. Trunk is needed, what can I do?”
