Official summary
Tsb: some 2014 2015 model year corolla vehicles may exhibit splitting/separation as a result of poor manufacturing of the front seat cushion cover. The tearing will occur at the seam of the outer bolster and center trim (see picture below for exact location/condition). Follow the repair procedure to address this condition.

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.
