Why is the tailgate of the 2015 Ford Ecosport not working?
Years 2012-2023

Answer

The tailgate of the Ford Ecosport can usually be opened using the remote control or the key: if this procedure does not work, it is still possible to open the tailgate. Although there is no handle, there is a way to open it manually: there is a contact lock in the upper part of the right rear light, highlighted by the chrome finish. In this way it will be possible to open the tailgate which will have a lateral opening towards the left.
