I'm having trouble with the power liftgate on my Mitsubishi Outlander. Can you help me figure out why it's not functioning properly?

The Mitsubishi Outlander's power liftgate can be opened using the key fob, a dashboard control, or a button on the hatch itself. Some owners have experienced the rear door failing to operate, accompanied by four warning beeps. In these cases, many drivers inadvertently press the liftgate's disable button, which is somewhat hidden above the front cupholders near the key fob slot on the driver's dash. The button may be activated accidentally by the driver's knee, leading to the malfunction of the rear power liftgate. Other common problems include a faulty latch, the need for reprogramming, broken cables in the hatch, or a depleted key fob battery. These issues are not unique to the Outlander and are considered universal concerns.

    If the power liftgate on a Mitsubishi Outlander isn't functioning properly, the issue is probably due to a loose connection or damaged wiring.

    Pressing the lock/unlock button isn't the problem. The button for controlling the car's interior intermittently works. Both of our remotes can lock/unlock the doors and drive the vehicle, but they can't open the tailgate. We purchased the 2022 vehicle from a dealership in Canada just two days ago.

    My rear door won't unlock using the remote or the button inside my car. How can I open it?
