Official summary

This article supersedes TSB 22-2278 to update the vehicle model years affected and the part list. For 2020-2023 Escape/Corsair vehicles, the roof opening panel frame mechanism kits have been released for service. These components can now be serviced separately and no longer require replacement of the entire roof opening panel frame. To correct the condition, follow the Service Procedure to install the roof opening panel frame mechanism kit.

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.
