OPERATING DUAL CLOSURES UTILIZING A COMMON SYSTEM

A system for actuating closures of a vehicle includes drive units and latches. The drive units may couple to one of the closures and may be used to control movement of the closure relative to another closure. Using the latches, the closures may be coupled together and the same drive units can be used to control movement of both closures together. The controlled movement of the closures may be automated by using a controller and one or more motors.
