I did some research on the DeeZee website and your DeeZee Tailgate Assist Custom Tailgate-Lowering System for Pickup Trucks, part # DZ43200, will operate more slowly when the temperature drops. I believe this is because the oil becomes less viscous in colder temperatures. Per DeeZee, you should not add any force to your tailgate assist to help it along.
If this is not the case and your tailgate assist has a malfunction, it does come with a 3-year warranty. I have included a product review of this item below.
