Official summary

TSB: Some customers may notice an abnormal brake feel in their 2021 model year Sienna Hybrid vehicle that could be described as a longer than usual brake pedal stroke. This may occur when the engine is off for more than five minutes after entering the vehicle and closing all doors before driving. The condition does not affect braking performance and will improve as the system performs learning cycles during vehicle operation. However, once the engine is turned off and the brake ECU goes to sleep, these learned values will be reset and the abnormal brake pedal feel will return. Follow the Repai

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.
