Can’t get rear hatch to close on my 2020 FGT Heritage, what’s the trick to get it closed ?

Occasionally happens on my 2021, don't push on the end of the hatch, push directly over the lock.

2 hands, "CPR style push", right over the lock like rnkma4 said.

FYI, "right over the lock " means about half way between the bottom edge of the glass and the end of the trunk panel. I always use a microfiber towel to close as well.

For sure dont try to slam it. If I recall, someone here broke the window that way (non carbon, or competition series obviously with the lexan rear window).

Ditto Dr. Frank.

Bystanders at car shows look at me as if I am nuts, but that's what it takes.

You can also turn the rubber stop to make it latch easier
