NHTSA's summary

15MY power boot PDI check (SC15/05) Technical background: A significant design change has occurred on Continental GT and Continental GT Convertible power boot systems built from 15MY onwards. The striker is now powered whereas previously the latch was powered, and the ECU software for the close-cycle of the boot lid is modified. Due to these fundamental changes a different approach is required in rectifying issues. In a few cases, during manufacturing profile adjustment to the boot lid, the boot lid function may have been compromised The Pre Delivery Inspection (PDI) for 15MY onwards includes a specific function check for the power boot. In the event of a power boot failure to latch event during this specific 15MY PDI check then the rectification detailed for outcome of this campaign should be applied Remedy: Check boot lid function and if necessary adjust boot lid striker and report adjustment
