Official summary

TSB: Some 2017 model year Tacoma vehicles painted with 8T0 Blue Metallic may exhibit clear-coat peeling on one or more panels. The peeling occurs in the clear coat layer, exposing the base coat to the sunlight and fading the color to white. The affected panel(s) will require prepping and repainting to address this condition. The paint repair may need to be sublet to a body shop.

Vehicles covered

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.
