Damp front foot-well carpet after long period of air conditioning use. Musty odor in the vehicle (moldy, old socks, laundry room). The A/C condensate drain hose is blocked by the heatshield.

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.
