Power Liftgate Install

A power liftgate opens and closes your tailgate at the touch of a button or key fob — handy when your hands are full. A great convenience upgrade for SUVs and hatchbacks without it.

Frequently asked questions

Can a power liftgate be added to any SUV?

Many can take an aftermarket kit, though fit depends on your model's hatch design and wiring.

Does it include a kick-to-open sensor?

Some kits do — a foot-wave sensor under the bumper opens the gate hands-free when you're carrying things.
