Official summary

On Golf vehicles of a limited production period, there may be insufficient cavity sealing of the door seam area. This may cause corrosion of the doors over time. Updated repair, claiming, and part information.

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.
