Official summary

Pitstop: interior lighting kit will only illuminate in red - in an effort to better match the factory lighting color on 2016my sorento (uma) models, the logic for the port/dealer installed interior lighting option kit (p/n c6f55 ac100) has been changed to illuminate only in constant red (a). Although the led lights are capable of displaying multiple colors, the control module logic will only allow for illumination in red.

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.
