Default Help, back hatch is stuck shut-1st gen XB

I had a sheet in the back of my box so the dog wouldn't get it dirty. The sheet fell onto where the back door latches on to and my son closed it. Now, it won't open. So, I got a sheet stuck in my back hatch lock. How do I get it out of there?

See your owners manual. There are instructions on page 169 on how to open the hatch from the inside. You will need to pop off the black oval cover going across the hatch below the window on the inside, then move the door latch lever from the inside.

Hope that works.

Got it. The instructions were, unfortunately, of no use. That thing was nearly impossible to get out. I had to cut it and fight it with three different pairs of pliers. There's an hour of my life I'll never get back. Thanks for lookin out, guys.
