Official summary

"issue: a customer may report brake squeal from the front or rear of the vehicle since the routine replacement of the brake pads. Vehicles with standard brakes only. Cause: brake compressibility of the pad, whilst within specification, may be slightly incompatible with the driving style and vehicle usage patterns of a small number of customers. Whiltst there is no impact on the efficiency of the braking system, in some circumstances this may lead to noise becoming apparent."

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.
