Official summary

Polaris has identified a quality issue affecting some Slingshot brake pressure switches. An intermittent failure of the switch triggers a "Brake Failure" malfunction indicator lamp, which is visible on the gauge cluster. There is no change in brake function as a result of this failure.

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.
