Official summary

Service bulletin - the power sliding door beeper sounds while the vehicle is in motion even though the sliding doors are fully latched. A bad crimp in the sliding door rear latch switch wire harness connector causes resistance fluctuations. These fluctuations can interfere with the power sliding door control unit, causing the beeper to sound when the doors are actually fully closed and latched. This issue can be intermittent and difficult to reproduce.

Vehicles covered

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.
