Official summary
Some 2019-2021 Edge/Nautilus vehicles may exhibit an inoperative power liftgate with or without diagnostic trouble code U3000:49 stored in the rear gate trunk module (RGTM). This may be due to the software in the RGTM. To correct the condition, reprogram the RGTM using the latest software level of the appropriate Ford diagnostic scan tool. For claiming use causal part 14B291 and applicable labor operations in Section 10 of the Service Labor Time Standards (SLTS) Manual.
Vehicles covered
What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
