When I use the key fob, or the interior open/close button, the liftgate opens about 1 inch, then 3 warning beeps, then closes and latches. However, if I pull the latch manually,(as you would on a non-automatic liftgate) and pass that ''1 inch'' point, the motor kicks in and raises the liftgate. Most of the time, it shuts okay, but there have been a few random times where I get the 3 warning beeps (for no reason, there is no obstruction) and it won't shut.
I have the Nissan Quest Model V42 Service Manual...(it's a digital pdf flie) and believe it or not, I cannot find the answer in there.
I've done quite a bit of research, but to no avail....I would truly appreciate any ideas anyone has to offer.
The lift gate motor needs to be replaced. Preferably at the dealer ship. Its a pain to replace and most shops will do shoddy work and destroy your interior when doing it.

Yes, the 2019 Ford Explorer Sport has a power liftgate that includes a rear hatch window that can be opened independently from the liftgate.
To open the rear hatch window, press the button on the key fob twice within three seconds, or press the button located on the liftgate handle twice. Alternatively, you can also use the interior switch located on the overhead console to open or close the rear hatch window.
The endgate/liftgate can be locked or unlocked by operating either one of the front door lock switches, your's doesn't do this ?
Endgate/Liftgate
Once the vehicle doors have been unlocked, the endgate/liftgate can be opened by using the handle mounted to the exterior of the gate. The endgate/liftgate can be locked or unlocked by operating either one of the front door lock switches, or by pressing the Lock/Unlock button on the key fob. The endgate/liftgate lock and unlock functions operate in conjunction with the rear doors.
The Liftgate Module does have something to do with the remote FOBs (it has the receiver for the FOBs) and could also have an effect on the courtesy lights, it senses an open liftgate and sends that info to the Body Control Module (BCM). An area of common problems are the wires in the rubber boot between the body and the liftgate, these wires need to be checked for breakage.
