Official summary

Grinding Noise from Rear Brakes. Pebbles, road grit, or other foreign materials can get caught in between the brake protection (backing) plate and the brake disc(s), this may cause a disturbing noise in the rear axle area while driving.

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.
