Rear Gate Switch in Driver Door
I recently purchased a 2020 GLC. The switch in the drivers door opens the rear gate, but it doesn't close it (either when we pull or push on the switch) ...is this how its designed to work? Or is there a setting somewhere in MBUX that needs to be turned on to enable the close function? Appreciate any help on this.

Thank you....that did work!...the door switch will open the rear gate with the Ignition ON or OFF. However to the close it, the IGNITION MUST BE ON (Accessory or Engine on position) .This is different from my other vehicles....they keep adding more safety features

On my wife's Lexus you can close the tailgate with a single press to the button even if the car is off.

It is a safety feature that makes it less likely to close the hatch on someone. In order to close it from the driver's door, where you might forget to check before you press the button, you must make a conscious decision by turning on the ignition. Lexus figures no one makes mistakes.
