2015 Explorer lift gate when attempting to close with key fob or instrument panel push button, it starts to close but before it reaches the full closed position, it returns to the full open position. Any suggestions?

Something blocking the latch or the opening?

That's my thought as well. ANY little thing that obstructs the door will keep it from latching. Even a little mat or rug that gets into the bottom channel.
