Official summary
Some 2010 ? 2013 model year Tundra vehicles may exhibit a condition where a deformed windshield dam, or some weatherstrip may be loose between the A-pillar garnish and windshield glass. Normally, the windshield dam is not visible and is only necessary for production. Over time, the dam adhesive may lose adhesion and deform. There is no functional concern with the windshield sealing and there is no need to replace or reseal the windshield if there are no complaints of water/air leaks. Please follow the process below to remove the exposed portion of the windshield dam.
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.
