Official summary

Dealer Message - American Honda Motor Co., Inc. (AHM) is searching for certain 2016-2018 ILXs with a client complaint of paint peeling on the C-pillar, in the area adjacent to the rear window & the roof. To better understand the cause of this condition, AHM would like to collect specific parts from the vehicle prior to you attempting a repair of any kind.

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.
