Wagoneer power liftgate no longer closes automatically

[Tygress_Jane]

Hey everyone,

Since about a week ago, the power liftgate of my friend's Wagoneer has stopped closing automatically, or lets say It only works about 1 out of every 20 tries. Whether we use the key, overhead console, or rear button, it beeps four times and won’t close. A message always pops up saying, "Power liftgate temporarily unavailable, please close manually to operate."

Has anyone else experienced this? Any tips on how to fix it?

She is trying to avoid a trip to the dealership, she has been through a lot

Thanks!

Did you try doing a hard restart on your car? Maybe it would fix the issue.
