I am concerned that when I have the bike rack fitted on the tow ball that the tailgate might open if I pass by the 'kick' sensor (I have found in the past that walking around the back could open the tailgate id walking close to the bumper). My son has a Hyundai where a button can disable opening of the tailgate.

Does such a facility exist on a 2018 XC90 as I would hate the tailgate to open onto the bike handlebar!
