Official summary

Some 2011 ? 2012 model year Scion tC vehicles may exhibit excessive wind noise with the moon roof in the ?Full Open? position. This condition typically starts at 45 mph and increases with speed. New Sliding Roof Guide Rail Sub-Assemblies have been developed to improve 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.
