Questions and answers
Hello! Please tell me how to connect Android Auto to a car Chevrolet Equinox 2021 535T Yujie Edition, VIN: LSGXC8356MV142300, made in China. I would be very grateful for an answer!
the liftgate will not unlock or open. It started to open then stopped just enough to leave a little wiggle in the hatch door, like 1/4 of an inch. It does not have a tight close on it now and will not open.
Possible causes for a 2021 Chevrolet Equinox liftgate that will not unlock or open include:
1. The vehicle is locked.
2. The power liftgate feature has been temporarily deactivated due to repeated power cycling or encountering multiple obstacles.
3. There is an obstruction or excess weight on the liftgate.
4. A support strut failure is causing the liftgate to close automatically.
5. The programmable liftgate height is set too low.
6. The RKE transmitter (key fob) is not detected or interfered with.
7. The vehicle is in motion or not in Park.
Check for alerts in the Driver Information Center (DIC), remove any obstructions or excess weight, and make sure the liftgate is fully closed and latched before trying again.
