The top bezel pops off. There are usually 2 screws to remove from the top of the bottom bezel on each side. start popping the bottom bezel off the hatch. It won't come out. Screws on the bottom. But you can get if off enough to reach down and grab the latch rod or latch to release the hatch. Yes the latch is at the bottom. And it has levers to move to open the hatch. Once open, remove the screws to remove the bezel, then replace the latch.

first is diagnosis.
you examine and test it. to see if its electrical or mech. failure.
and once discovered that follow that to logical conclusions.

Try locking all the doors and unlocking the hatch with the key.

The locking mechanism on the rear lift gate for the Chevy Uplander has some plastic and rubber-coated parts that can get jammed. If you can pull back the panel from the inside top near the glass, you can reach down and try to spray some silicone lubricant into the lock. This could help get those parts unstuck so they spring back when you pull on the handle latch from the outside. Once you get the rear hatch open, I recommend taking out the locking mechanism and thoroughly lubricating it. Your rear lift gate will start to release very easily from then on.

You have the 2.5L with dual overhead cams, right? That has a timing chain--not belt.

hub seals are bad or vacuum hoses rotten

You'll have to climb in the back and remove the interior trim panel. Once it is removed you can get to the latch and release it.
