Official summary
Radio and Front Display Anomalies REASON FOR THIS PROGRAM In some of the affected vehicles, the front control/display interface module (FCDIM) may have been unintentionally programmed for the European market instead of the North American market, resulting in the following symptoms: The radio band cannot be changed from FM1 (the tuner may change to AM but the display continues to show FM1). Satellite radio cannot be accessed. The Europe-specific park distance control feature is enabled, and displays on the FCDIM when the forward vehicle speed drops below 6 mph (10 kph).

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.
