Official summary

TSB: Some 2012 - 2016 model year North American produced (NAP) Camry and Camry HV vehicles and 2013 - 2015 Avalon and Avalon HV vehicles may exhibit a knocking, popping, ticking, or snapping noise from the moon roof area while driving. The repair procedure included in this bulletin has been developed 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.
