Service bulletin SSM71863
A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

NHTSA's summary
"ISSUE: A CUSTOMER MAY REPORT THAT THE BOOT /TRUNK LID IS INTERMITTENTLY FAILING TO LIFT OPEN, ESPECIALLY AT LOWER TEMPERATURES. COMPARISON WITH A VEHICLE IN SHOWROOM / WORKSHOP CONDITIONS STORED AT HIGHER TEMPERATURES WILL ALSO INDICATE THIS. CAUSE: THE XF VEHICLE HAS A 'LIFT ASSIST' SYSTEM, AND ITS OPERATION IS DEPENDENT ON TEMPERATURE,THE LOWER THE TEMPERATURE THE MORE LIKELY THE BOOT / TRUNK LID WILL NOT SELF-OPEN. THE SYSTEM WILL ALWAYS HAVE ENOUGH PRESSURE TO SUPPORT THE BOOT / TRUNK LID, ONCE FULLY OPENED."
