Hi,

Im helping a friend with her 98V70xc......the tailgate won't open from the inside or outside. It seems to be locking and unlocking when the lock is turned, and when the key fob buttons are pressed, but the hatch lever moves/feels like it is locked.

How do I get the gate open so I can get some lube in the mechanism?

Is there a common failure/fix for this so she doesnt have to take it to the dealer?

Thanks
