How to open the locked tailgate of a Peugeot 5008

Model: Peugeot 5008 MK 2 - Years 2017-2024
Part: Body

In this video we see a problem that afflicted the owner of a Peugeot 5008, but it can happen to anyone who has loaded their car with luggage and secured them with a strap to prevent them from moving. The tailgate safety strap got stuck in the closing mechanism, preventing it from opening. In these cases, it is necessary to use the internal unlock button, which is located near the closing mechanism. We will have to remove the lining to see the tailgate locking mechanism; we will see an unlock lever usually yellow or orange) and with a finger or a pointed object, we move this opening button, and at the same time push the tailgate out, releasing the strap.
