Discovered on my Telluride, that differs from my Sorento, that the tailgate will automatically close when the key fob is moved away from the car. My daughter and I were unloading groceries out of the cargo area, which requires many trips back and forth into the house. As I reached the steps for the house, the tailgate started closing on my daughter as she was grabbing some grocery bags.
I am sure the tailgate closing is a feature that is supposed to happen. If need be, I will get in the habit of leaving the key fob in the cargo area until we have finished unloading. A quick question though - is it possible to go into settings and disable the closing BUT leave the auto-opening enabled? (I love the auto-opening when approaching the car with a full cart of groceries.)
UPDATE
It's a simple tweak in the settings menu - you can totally turn off the auto-closing!
(I'm guessing this was turned ON at the factory.)
