Official summary

Service Bulletin to fix issue related to fuel gauge. On some Cascadia vehicles with a KUS fuel level sender, the needle on the fuel gauge is not touching the full mark when the fuel tank(s) are completely filled. The gauge will show approximately 95% full, but will not reach the full mark.

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.
