Official summary
TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN: FRONT LATCH LOCKING OF THIRD ROW SEAT - This bulletin provides information to inspect the 3rd row seat inboard latch engagement on some 2019-2020MY Sedona (YP) vehicles, produced from February 18, 2019 through November 15, 2019, and if necessary, replace the rubber damper. Slight up and down seat movement may be felt when the inboard front latch is not properly locking in place, which may be caused by a defective rubber damper inside the latch.

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.
