I have a 2012 Traverse and while I drive the "liftgate open" on the display won't stop going off. It dings on on every bump I hit. The dinging is driving me crazy, it is constant. The lift gate is closed and seems to be inline. I pulled the right fuse I think and it didn't work. I do not have a power lift gate. How do I disconnect the sensor? Where is the sensor? Need help before I explode!

Hi, I have a 2008 GMC Acadia with a similar problem. However the lift gate latch is 2 stage. and the first tends to release once under way e.g. over bumps or when closing a door, which causes the alarm to beep. I realize this may be just an adjustment issue with the latch but I share your annoyance. Don.

I took my Traverse to the dealer and the found it was an issue with the installed Karr alarm system. The wire splice had come loose causing a premature activation of the tailgate sensor. They fixed it for free. It was not an easy find for them but may be a consideration if this happens to you.
Thanks
