Official summary
Some 2016 mkx vehicles equipped with a 3.7l duratec engine and built on or before 4/21/2016 may exhibit an illuminated mil with dtc p013c stored in the powertrain control module (pcm). This may be caused by improper sealing of the left side exhaust y-pipe flange due to weld splatter or exhaust pipe intrusion into the flange sealing surface.

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.
