Lock Striker Adjustment
To determine if striker adjustment is required, proceed as follows:
1. Make certain the liftgate is properly aligned within the liftgate opening before proceeding with the striker adjustment.
2. Close the liftgate onto the striker and note if the liftgate drags on the striker causing the liftgate to move left or right upon contact with the striker.
Also note the closing effort to fully engage the latch.
3. Using a soft marker, mark around the striker for reference of the original position. Loosen the striker.
4. Move the striker to eliminate drag on the striker and liftgate latch and to achieve the proper liftgate position within the liftgate opening. Start with
the left/right position, then position the striker to achieve proper alignment to the liftgate opening. Set the in/out adjustment for the proper liftgate
seal engagement making sure the liftgate closing efforts are correct.
Notice: Refer to Fastener Notice (See: Service Precautions/Vehicle Damage Warnings/Fastener Notice) .
5. Tighten the striker-to-body bolts.
Tighten the liftgate striker-to-body bolts to 25 N.m (18 lb ft).
