Official summary

TSB:SERVICE ACTION: NAVIGATION UNIT SOFTWARE UPGRADE (SA172) - This bulletin provides the procedure for upgrading the navigation system software of some Sedona (YP), Soul (PS) and Optima (QF) vehicles to resolve concerns related to no sound coming from the head unit after ending a Bluetooth call.

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.
