Repair Procedures: Replacement

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2021 Hyundai Kona. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Take care to not let the liftgate fall on you as the lifts are removed. Have a helper hold the liftgate open, or use a secure method to hold it open.

Using a screwdriver, lift up slightly the socket clips (A) of both ends on the lifter (B), and then remove the lifter from the bracket.
