When I opened the rear power liftgate, it got almost completely open and then unexpectedly closed while making a beeping sound. It would have closed on my head if I didn't jump out of the way fast enough. I tried it again using the remote again and then w/ the liftgate button on the dashboard and it continues to malfunction.

My six-year-old son was reaching for his seat belt at the same time the door was being closed by the driver. The car was parked. My son's fingers were caught in the back of the sliding door. Even more upsetting was that once the door was close, it could not be opened again for 30-45 seconds, with my screaming six-year-old's fingers still closed inside. There is a sensor on the door, but it is on the front of the door, not the back. Further, I think there should be an emergency release of the door installed.
