Official summary
Some 2019-2020 Edge vehicles may exhibit a condition where the rear wiper continuously operates. This may be due to a pinched or damaged wire in the liftgate where the harness enters the liftgate causing a short to ground. To correct the condition, inspect the area where the wiring harness enters the liftgate and repair any damage found to the wiring.

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.
