How to switch off the power liftgate function in a 2024 Nissan Rogue
Keep people clear of the liftgate and close it fully before driving. Do not force a powered mechanism or assume switching it off repairs a fault.
The optional power liftgate can be switched on or off from Power Back Door in Vehicle Settings. This is the vehicle menu for the powered-opening function, not the height-programming control on the tailgate itself.

Common questions
Is this where I set its opening height?+
No. Opening height is stored using Garage Mode at the liftgate; Power Back Door is the on/off setting for powered operation.
