Official summary

2014 model year IS 250 and IS 350 vehicles are equipped with a direct-type Tire Pressure Warning System (TPWS). Each tire (except the spare tire) has a tire pressure warning valve/transmitter and the measured tire pressure data is sent to the tire pressure warning antenna by electric wave and then sent to the receiver.

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.
