Automatic rear liftgate closed on my hand and did not release. Sensors did not activate. Car was parked on a deserted residential street, engine was not running. I could not reach hatch to open the door. Fortunately, I had someone with me. I had to seek medical services and physical therapy. Hand injury will result in lifelong discomfort. Kia was notified as was my auto insurance company. I was advised to get a safety check at the dealership, but because of the pandemic I am isolating and avoiding exposures.
