Follow the included installation instructions and confirm power liftgate calibration or initialization procedures required by the vehicle after replacement.
Quality Assurance
POWERISE by Stabilus is built to the same design standards and durability expectations used for factory-style power liftgate systems. The integrated sensor system adds an extra layer of operational safety during use.
