Is there a way to pause the power liftgate on the 2019? This weekend I had skis on the roof racks and wanted to shove more stuff in the back of the car. I was hoping to only open the liftgate 3/4 or so way and it only seems like I can either open or close it fully with no option to pause or stop the cycle.

Thanks

This is what I found in the Owner's Manual for a 2019:
"NOTE: The liftgate can also be opened manually by
pushing the liftgate release handle and pulling upward in one fluid motion." About page 111.

I think it works the same as my 2014, while the liftgate is opening I push one of the buttons and the liftgate stops, then I raise it manually to where I want it to stop.
I have 2 buttons, one of them stops the liftgate.
If you have the hands free liftgate it may be different.

On my 2022 if I open it manually and keep ahold of it I can control it.

Pull the fuse and operate manually for your trip like a Cherokee with the non-powered liftgate.

Yes. Just grab and open in one motion and it won't activate the motor. Normally there a slight pause from when you push the button to when it actually opens. If you open it during that period, it won't activate the motor.

You can also push the button a 2nd time while it's moving to stop the motor.
