Official summary

Warranty Information Letter for Detroit Bearing Failures - Standard Diagnostic Times. DTNA is increasing repair strategies for determining the root cause of Detroit DD heavy duty lower end bearing failures. To support this strategy change, Detroit now has two (2) Standard Diagnostic Times (SDTs), easy and difficult, which can be applied to repair orders.

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.
