Official summary

This bulletin announces a design change to the front brake caliper supports to address customer concerns of a rattling sound heard while driving. The change involves a reduction in the amount of clearance between the caliper support mounting bolt holes and the mounting bolts. NOTE: This information is applicable to models using 16? front brakes ONLY.

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.
