For 3.5 years now it's always been a little tenuous closing the hatch. You have to carefully put your finger tips all the way to the back of the outside handle recess so you don't leave unsightly finger prints on visible areas when closing the hatch. Well I'm figuring the car caught on to this and popped out a handle on the inside! must have happened a week or so ago 'cause it was never there before... Now you can pull down on that till the door is about 3/4 shut, pull your hand out and it closes the rest of the way under it's own momentum. It even has a textured pad in it. How cool is that! never have to touch the paint again. :grin:
Dave.. it has been there on my Maggie since I have had it..but than again I am only 5"6" ... I am glad you take the time to find new things on your Maggie.. :happy: :maddy:
I'm not sure what happened but I noticed it a few days ago... when I did interior LED bulbs I did the rear hatch too. I SWEAR it wasn't there then. I'm figuring the battery on the cloaking device ran down... I'm sticking with that.
I found the trunk handle on my Charger at least a couple of years ago. Just have to remember to use my right hand or I just grab sharp edges on the left.
i do the same exact thing!!! especially since i covered over my pull area when i did the trunk liner a few years back!! lol
i always pull hatch down with a the hatch handle 1/2 way then put my finger on the RAM symbol n finish closing the hatch.
Are you kidding me Dave that was the first thing I seen upon first opening my rear when I got my sled. Getting old buddy.
you know what I love! I purposely avoid reading the owners manual so I can find little tricks and features over the first couple years. I swear it took me 3 years before I figured out what the homelink buttons were on my truck
Yeah, I like that inside handle too! I pretty much noticed mine right off! That is.... on our 1st magnum and then figured out the other THREE must be the same ~ LOL ~
im the sick bastard that carries around microfiber towels in his car to close the trunk/hood with lol
Nothing wrong with that... You do carry a small hiss bottle of distilled water too right (so you don't get water spots when wiping something off)? The problem with latch mechanisms is that they are usually lubed with white grease somewhere inside.
Lol! That's funny! I don't know what it is with these Dodge vehicles. It took me a year just to find the button that opens up my trunk. I always thought it was either doing it by remote or by key since I didn't find any interior button or latch. So 99.9% of the time I did it by the remote, while the .1% was by key when I had my battery disconnected and needed to get in the trunk. It took me 2 1/2 years to figure out I can control the speed of each windshield wiper setting by rotating the knob lol. Hopefully nothing else surprises me haha.
