Repair Procedures: Replacement

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2023 Hyundai Palisade. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE:

Take care to not let the tailgate fall on you as the lifts are removed. Have a helper hold the tailgate 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.
