Lift Gate

Just wondering how long it took any of you to notice that there is a place on the bottom right of the tailgate to assist in closing it? Only took me a year and a half! :)

Funny you should mention this. I just noticed it a few months ago. I also recently discovered the sunvisors can be extended as well. And I bought HHRvey new!

You mean the little cup thingy?
I'm only 5'1", so yeah, found it right away.
Although I still had to get on my toes to reach it--thank goodness for the leveling springs!

Keep forgetting about the sunvisors...

I noticed it but never really used till I noticed a dent forming from the way I was closing it. Now im the only one that closes it and the cup gets used every time.

I noticed the cup when looking at the HHR before buying it back in 05.. I even had to explain to the dealer what is was for. Probably helped that I had a previous SUV that had the same feature.

I'll have to admit I did not know that.
