Narrative

Hatch closes on your head while loading groceries into the vehicle. The kick sensor is activated by the movements that a person naturally makes when loading cargo into a vehicle. It happens to pretty-much everyone who has ever loaded groceries into the car. There is no way to disable it, per the dealer.
