Abstract
A vehicle opening and closing body control device includes an opening and closing drive device and a controller. When the opening and closing body is being closed, in a case where the position of the opening and closing body when a trapping of a foreign object is detected is outside a specified range between a fully closed position and a specified position, the controller controls the operation of the opening and closing drive device to reverse the opening and closing body to perform the opening operation by a predetermined opening-and-returning distance and then stop the opening and closing body. In a case where the position of trapping is in the specified range, the controller reverses the opening and closing body to perform the opening operation by the predetermined opening-and-returning distance or a greater distance and then stop the opening and closing body outside the specified range.
