- Typically made of a rubber material
- Helps to prevent your liftgate from making contact with your vehicle's frame
- Can affect the functionality of your liftgate when damaged
Your liftgate is a hatch — usually motorized — on the posterior of your Nissan. It permits access to the back compartment of your vehicle by using a master key, activating it with a key fob, or pressing a button within your car. You can also access it by swiping your foot beneath the bumper on certain Nissans. This component is designed for both function and driver convenience, and it requires two working Liftgate Bump Stops to operate the right way.
A Liftgate Bump Stop is a modest part made up of sturdy material, typically rubber. It is made to protect your liftgate from damage by preventing the liftgate from slamming into your Nissan's frame when opening and closing it.
Because the Liftgate Bump Stop is often made of rubber material, it can dry rot and deteriorate with time or become worn due to general wear and tear. Once a Liftgate Bump Stop starts to wear out or if it isn't operating properly, you may hear rattling coming from the rear of your Nissan when you're on the road. Additionally, the functionality of your liftgate might also become negatively affected. The latter can be especially inconvenient when you have a full hand of groceries, supplies, or tools and need your vehicle's liftgate to open or close properly.
Although a Liftgate Bump Stop has no effect on driving safety on roadways, it does help to maintain the usability, convenience, and overall style of your vehicle's liftgate. Make certain that you get the correct fit for your vehicle by shopping OEM parts at Nissan Parts.
This Liftgate Bump Stop, part 90878CA02A, is compatible with Nissan Murano 2003-2007. See the What This Fits tab for more information.
