Body - Tailgate Release Button Operation

Bulletin No.: 03-08-66-007

Date: June 09, 2003

INFORMATION

Subject:
Normal Operation of Tailgate Release Button

Models:
All 2000-2004 Saturn L-Series Wagon (RPO A35)

Attention:
Service Manager, Technician Purpose





The purpose of this bulletin is to describe the operation of the L-Series wagon liftgate for each of the 2000 - 2004 model years. On certain model year Saturn L-Series wagons, the liftgate release button will not open the liftgate after operating the vehicle. This is a normal function of the liftgate release auto lock feature. Once the liftgate is unlocked using the key, the key fob remote, or the door lock switch, the liftgate release button becomes functional again. See the chart shown to determine when the auto lock feature is applicable.
