A vehicle assembly includes a closure panel. The closure panel has an interior surface with a receiving aperture disposed thereon. The closure panel is movable between a closed position and an open position. The assembly additionally includes a support member with a proximal end and a distal end. The support member is movable between a stowed position and a deployed position. The assembly further includes a retention element disposed at the distal end. The retention element is configured to deformably engage with the receiving aperture when the closure panel is in the open position and the support member is in the deployed position. The retention element thereby retains the closure panel in the open position.
