Filler cap
The filler cap is attached to the fuel tank pocket on the right side of the vehicle. The cap is opened by pulling the remote handle on the filler cap located on the floor in front of the driver's seat.
Tailgate
The tailgate can be opened using the switch on the driver's door. Battery voltage is supplied to the tailgate actuator via the body controller (BCM). The BCM sends a signal to the actuator when it receives input from the key fob or driver's door switch.
