2017 GLE 350

Hi There,

Anyone else experienced the tailgate door for a 2017 GLE 350 not working. Both on the key and tailgate door itself once you push and try to open it.
Even on the button on the drivers side door. It does not work as well. There would be beeping sound but it does not lift up. It does open
manually. Please share if anyone experienced the same problem and how you fixed it. Appreciate it.

Mine seems to stick occasionally lately. It's more when I manually open it from the back. It's not consistent and ok most of the time, but sometimes i'll pull the handle and it will open, but i'll need to pull it to get to to kick in all the way.

No issues from the door or the key though. I wonder if it's weather related (was moderately cold this past winter)
