To open a jammed rear hatch on a 2004 Ford Freestar, first check if the latch mechanism is obstructed or if debris is preventing it from operating. You can try gently tapping around the latch area to dislodge any stuck components. If that doesn't work, locate the manual release mechanism, typically accessible through the interior trim panel, and manually operate it to unlock the hatch. If the issue persists, consider consulting a professional mechanic for further assistance.

My 2004 Ford Freestar hatch won't close how do i fix it?

I have the same problem with mine. What i found out is its the cable form the outside handle goes to a plastic piece that pivots and opens the door. On this piece the rivet holding it in gets rusted, and as you pull on the outside handle it stays in the opened position.Once you start driving the doors automatically lock and because the rear hatch is still you cannot unlock the back door to close it.The Fix - There is a small plastic square piece on the cover of the back door on the inside where the lock is. Take this out and use a flashlight to see the white plastic piece with the cable attached to at the back of the lock assembly.Get a screwdriver and push this down, then unlock the door and the door with close. It is pretty easy.I took the whole back panel off and used wd40 all over the lock and moved it manually until it freed itself and i haven't had a problem in about a month.Mark
