Official summary

On some vehicles, it may be difficult to adjust the driver seat up or down using the manual seat lift lever. This may be caused by a broken front seat side cover that interferes with the operation of the seat lifter mecha-nism. The cover may have been previously broken by an outside impact.

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.
