Official summary

Dealer Letter email: In the involved vehicles, the S-APGS (Simple Advanced Parking Guidance System) buzzer may not sound as designed to alert the driver to stop the vehicle during back-in assist parking mode and parallel parking mode. However, the stop indicator displays correctly on the multi-information display to alert the driver to stop the vehicle.

Vehicles covered

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.
