Official summary

Certain Palisade (LX2) vehicles equipped with 3.8L GDI Lambda II engines may not meet engine-out NOx (Nitrogen Oxides) and Particulate Matter (PM) emission standards. The service procedure provides an update to the emission logic within the Engine Control Module (ECM) to improve engine-out NOx and PM emissions, so they are within permissible specifications. Additionally, improvements to reduce noise during engine start, and enhanced thermostat logic, are also included in the updated ECM software.

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.
