Official summary

The Check Control message "Door open" appears in the instrument cluster (Kombi) even though all vehicle doors are closed and locked. The locking operation of the doors is not affected.

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.
