There is a small speaker inside the rear hatch trim. I was applying sound deadening to my car earlier this year and went to remove the trim. While I was in there I planned to disconnect the speaker. To my surprise, in the process of removing the trim, I accidentally ripped the wires out of the speaker. Mission accomplished? My rear hatch is quiet now.
If you do decide to do this, buy extra plastic clips as you will inevitably break some in the process.

Not sure if this is what you are referring to (Pedestrian warning system) but here ya go:
I'm pretty sure OP is referring to the liftgate beeping sound.
There's a small middle speaker in the liftgate trim that has a white connector. Disconnect that and you're good.
I believe you can just pop out the speaker grill and then unclip it.
Here's an unrelated thread post but it shows what I'm talking about:
Recontenting the speakers in the rear hatch?
Another option if you're already taking apart the liftgate is by disconnecting the wire from the other side. Check out the video below and you can see the white connector at the 7:05 mark.
Good luck.
