Official summary

This may be due to a crankshaft front oil seal that is out of position and leaking. To correct the condition, replace the crankshaft front oil seal.

Vehicles covered
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.
