This also happened to me in my Badlands. Thankfully, only once (so far).

I have a 2023 Badlands, which does not have a liftgate button on the fob, so it can neither be the source of nor a solution to the problem. In my case, whether the button on the liftgate works on the first press, the 6th press, somewhere in between, or not at all changes every time. Whether my...

I have the same problem you do. However, mine is intermittent. Sometimes it opens and sometimes it doesn't. It can take multiple presses. So I stand there like a fool pressing the button 3, 4, 5 times until it either works or I get annoyed enough to dig out my fob and hit unlock.

Just picked up my 2023 Badlands. Love this color!

Thanks, good call! That fixed it.

Pretty sure the fix involves the liftgate button on the fob, which the 2023's don't have.

Not on mine, it doesn't. I have to unlock the doors first or the button does nothing.

I've officially joined the club! Just picked up my 2023 Cyber Orange Badlands today. And I got in on the $500 rebate, so that was a nice bonus.
