Official summary
Some customers have a due bill for an Accessories Hitch. The Accessories Hitch has been discontinued.

These customers also have the option to upgrade to the Full Tow Package at a special price.
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.
