Official summary

Situation: a steering wheel shimmy may be evident during the pre-delivery inspection (pdi) road test due to temporary flat spots on the rolling surface of the tire. Cause: temporary flat spots naturally develop on the rolling surface of a tire when the wheels of the vehicle are stationary over a period of time.

What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
