Issue

On the power unit of the under-floor slide-stow type liftgate device, the ID setting button on the radio-controlled receiver—used to register the wireless signal—is being held in the depressed position by a wiring harness. When the button remains depressed during operation, the receiver continuously scans for a wireless signal to register. As a result, if another radio-controlled transmitter is operated in the vicinity of the vehicle, the receiver may pick up that signal and activate the liftgate device unintentionally.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, add a wiring guard over the ID setting button on the radio-controlled receiver and reroute the surrounding wiring to prevent contact with the button.
