Official summary

Technical Background The issue is caused by incomplete cutting of the drain flap at the parts supplier. When the flap is not cut all the way back, it is not able to open fully. The drain will clog.

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.
