Driving with tailgate open

[Oest]

I see the submission from July 17, 2021, and does that still hold? The only way to drive with my kayak slightly sticking out the back is to put a padlock where the rear tailgate is supposed to latch onto the back of the car and fool it? No way to turn off the "ding" alarm?

What year, trim do you have?

Here is a 3D printer model that does the same as a padlock without the weight or scratching: KIA Telluride Gate Spoof by 3DForgeCraft
