Official summary

Some 2015-2020 F-150, 2017-2020 F-Super Duty vehicles may exhibit one or more noisy doors when opening and closing. This may be due to dirt and debris on the door check arm(s). To correct this condition, follow the Service Procedure to clean and neutralize the affected door check arms.

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.
