It sounds like the rear hatch motor isn't working. You'll probably have to go get a new one. I believe there kind of expensive. You might just want to go to a junk yard or somewhere and find a motor for it.

Is the motor in the down position?

If so then when looking down there should be switch you can push with a screw driver or your finger to make the motor come back up then set the hatch on it, it will lock and pull down. Happens to mine all the time if you trigger the motor and dont catch the hatch.
