Guy's I need some help please. I just got back home from vacation. While out of town (in Bryson City, NC) myself, my wife and daughter went for a ride through the Greast Smokie Mountain National Park. Beautiful! Anyway, we went from the Chatalochee Valley over Mount Sterling to Tennesse on Cove Creek Rd. When we got back into Cherokee (ha! to Cherokee in the Cherokee) the liftgate wouldn't open! No damage, no bumps, no noises. It had been "tricky" to open for some time, requiring sometimes two or three tries. It just felt like the latch wasn't "grabbing". This is what it feels like now. There is still spring tension, but you never feel it grab. I can only describe it like a firearm trigger, there is usually some take-up followed by an increase in resistence, and then a "break" as the latch releases. Now there is no increase in resistance. If I could get it open, I could remove the trim panel for a better idea of what the problem is, but with it stuck closed this is impossible without destroying the panel. Any ideas? Help!
