Warning: Tailgate did not shut but car drives without warning.
Today I opened the tailgate to put a bag in the car then pressed the close button and walked past to open the car and get in. The car started as normal and let me drive off and only 10-15 seconds later I got a single bong, like the one saying speed limit change, and the car icon displayed with flashing tailgate. The tailgate was not shut and the car had let me drive off at 20 mph before I got a warning.
Stopped the car and pressed the button to shut and it did as normal.
Tested this when I got back and if you press the button and walk behind the tailgate it stops, I guess thinking there is an obstruction, but no warning beep or anything.
Surely this should be a bit more obvious when you put the car in drive?
