How do I adjust the height of the Kia Sportage's tailgate?

I'm not very tall and having trouble reaching the handle to close the Kia Sportage's tailgate. Is there a way to adjust the height of the tailgate or lower the handle?

Unfortunately, there is no direct way to adjust the height of the tailgate or lower the handle on the Kia Sportage. However, here are some alternative solutions that may help:
1. Use a step stool or platform to stand on when closing the tailgate.
2. Utilize the power-operated tailgate feature to easily close the tailgate without having to reach for the handle.
3. Consider using a carabiner clip to extend the length of the handle for easier reach.
4. Install a tailgate lift assist kit to make opening and closing the tailgate easier.

I recommend trying to adjust the seat position in the driver's seat. By moving the seat closer to the tailgate, you may find it easier to reach the handle. You can also try asking a taller friend or family member to help close the tailgate when needed.

I had the same issue until I discovered that there is a handle on the inside of the tailgate that can be used to close it. Just open the tailgate and look for the handle on the inside. It's a bit of a stretch, but it may be more convenient for you.
