My rear hatch will not lock
Anyone have any ideas why my rear hatch will not lock? It will not lock using the master lock switch or the keyfab. If the doors are locked and the hatched is opened the alarm goes off and that is loads of fun.

Make sure the power lock mechanism is functioning. You should hear a clunk as tailgate locks function. Most likely the lock rods are loose or out of adjustment. Remove the plastic trim panel, clean and lubricate the lock and latch mechanism with Throttle body cleaner and gun oil. Then locate any loose parts or loose wires and put them back where they belong. Secure any loose lock rods with a zip tie.
