Official summary

This technical service bulletin, provided to dealers, provides instructions to remove the transmission and replace two primary pulley shaft bearings and one secondary pulley shaft bearing, if a clicking noise (along with whining/humming), directly related to vehicle speed, is heard in the passenger compartment.

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.
