Official summary

Some Slingshot vehicles could experience extended brake pedal travel that may lead to a feeling of poor brake performance. To address this, Slingshot has developed a Secondary Brake Bleed Procedure that will more effectively remove air from the brake system.

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.
