Official summary
The ?13-?14MY GS 350 comes equipped with an electronic Rear Parking Brake. The adjustment method is different from the previous generation GS model which had a mechanical parking brake. Because of this, a different procedure is required when performing adjustments. If the incorrect adjustment procedure is performed, this may adversely affect the performance of the parking brake including possibility of causing a noise when the vehicle travels over bumps (i.e. rattle).

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.
