Official summary

2015-2017 transit vehicles ordered with a keyless entry keypad will have the ford accessory keypad installed on the vehicle and programmed at the assembly plant. The master keycode card will be stowed in a cardboard box located in the vehicles driver door pocket. Before delivery of the vehicle to the customer, the keycode card must be transferred to the vehicles owner manual.

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.
