Official summary

In vehicles equipped with the second row 60% / 40% split seat, the flex cable assembly can come out of the seat rail mechanism (circled). This stops the forwards and backwards travel of the seat.

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.
