Official summary

TSB: Some 2014 ? 2015 model year Corolla vehicles may exhibit splitting/separation as a result of poor manufacturing of the Front Seat Cushion Cover. The tearing will occur at the seam of the outer bolster and center trim (see picture below for exact location/condition). Follow the Repair Procedure 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.
