Lock Unit, Tailgate/Trunk Lid
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 12 other vehicles, including the 2014 Volvo XC90, 2013 Volvo XC90, 2012 Volvo XC90, 2011 Volvo XC90, and 2010 Volvo XC90. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The lock unit in the tailgate locks and unlocks during a normal locking procedure. When the tailgate is unlocked and the handle on the tailgate is pressed the catch in the mechanism from the lock brace in the body disengages and the tailgate opens.
There is a lock cylinder on the tailgate on the XC90 if a third row of seats was fitted at the factory.
The tailgate/trunk lid can also be unlocked/opened separately with a special button on the remote control.
