I just realized the trunk open button can also be used to close the trunk too.
(Which makes me wonder why redundant/duplicate buttons !)

The center button is the only one accessible when the trunk is closed. The other button is LIT, and more visible and easy to reach when the trunk is open.

Personally, I use the one that was removed from later models all the time. I almost bought a new 2024 and I was missing that button just thinking about it being gone. Deal-breaker?.

I’m thinking of getting a ‘24 and buying a button to put in even though I almost never use it in my ‘21. ?‍♂?

What will really blow your mind is pre-pandemic models you can wave your foot under the trunk and it will close.

We use our kick to open all the time. When people say "I can't make it work", I usually think "yeah, no surprise there". ?

The fact that this isn't a feature anymore would have me considering not buying a Mach-E if I was in the market. But I don't expect to be in the market for a Mach-E again.

Oh, man, then you'll have to go through all the hassle of legally changing your name! ?

Now consider that Ford provided two physical buttons trunk buttons… but neither of them are in the cabin within reach of the driver.

The Mach E is a beautiful car, but there are a few decisions which just defy any logic or common sense. Like a woman!

lol....this is my question....nothing in the cabin to release the hatch? If so, that is a head-scratcher....?

Also comical...I was searching the owners manual in the center screen, and entered "Home Link".... no search results found! Enter "garage door", and the first thing that popped up was Home Link info.... ??
