A salute is in order for washing your own vehicle rather than paying to have it sprayed with hydrofluoric acid and other toxic chemicals.   Meanwhile your issues are easily solved!

1. Only move your foot in/out.  The sensor doesn't even see a side to side motion most of the time.  Practice it a couple of times at home and you'll find a sweet spot where a single kick always opens the liftgate.

2. Install a key hook someplace handy but at least 3 feet from the car.  Without the fob the liftgate won't spontaneously open and the doors won't keep cycling through lock/unlock while you're doing the wash either.

Shiny car, no more gremlins....win!

 

Thanks, I did not realize that!

When I am trying to trigger the tailgate, standing on one leg while swinging the other leg in/out, back/forth, I know some body is getting a good laugh if I’m in a parking lot. However, when At home and I’m washing the vehicle, the tailgate will go up no less than 5 times from water splashing. 
SMH!

Excellent thread. I am ordering the horn assembly tonight.
 

I have a fairly pricey 2019 Edge Titanium Elite loaded with plenty of electronic bells and whistles, but it sounds like a 1971 Ford Pinto!

Hello everyone! Jeff and Dee here in southeast Louisiana. I just purchased my wife this new Edge. It is a very comfortable and well handling vehicle. I just came to this forum and got information for upgrading the horn. Very good and concise video. I am looking forward to reading about many more tips.
