Official summary

Convenience Closing Functions Changed. The following Comfort Access convenience closing functions via the outer door handle or remote are no longer available: Folding in the exterior mirrors Closing the hardtop Closing all windows CAUSE Because the anti-trap function is not available when closing via Comfort Access on convertible vehicles, and in order to avoid any damage to the convertible top components, the convenience closing functions have been deactivated.

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.
