[voice over] When you’ve got an armload of groceries or luggage, the optional Hands-Free Liftgate lets you open your vehicle without having to fumble for your keys… or even the door handle.
You’ll find the liftgate activation zone below the rear license plate. With the key fob in your pocket, just move your foot under the bumper in a straight, gentle kicking motion. Do not use a side-to-side or sweeping motion. The hazard lights will flash and the liftgate will power open after about 1 second.
To close the gate, repeat the same kicking motion. The hazard lights will flash again, and the gate will close after about 3 seconds.

Please keep in mind, if an object blocks the hands-free sensors, it could disrupt activation. You can turn the Hands-Free feature on or off in your Uconnect Settings.
