The Mercedes ML has known issues with its liftgate, including failure to latch properly or to stay upright. Excessive weight may cause it to break or become bent, with the motor being a likely culprit. To troubleshoot, you should check for a signal at the motor when operating the raise/lower buttons from all three positions and the remote control. Replacing the liftgate motor will involve removing the interior trim panels in the cargo compartment near the motor, which can be a complex task. While liftgate motors are meant to provide convenience, any malfunctions in the system can present safety risks.
