Just had my tailgate / boot on the ST fail to release when operating the switch. Phone the stealers, they told me my car had the TSB action, recall and switch replaced Nov 2011, owned it since Oct 11' & don't remember them mentioning a tailgate release switch change.
Anyway they showed me how to manually open it, inside, just where the warning triangle & 1st aid kit would be located, there is a round plastic cap, remove it, inside you can see a small shiny metal lever, with a round hole about 4-5mm dia, put a screwdriver into the edge of the hole and push the lever to rear of the car, and catch releases.
New switch being ordered, hope to have it changed again as it has only been in just over a year.
