Official summary

While carrying out the Pre Delivery Inspection (PDI) using Pathfinder it may be found that the passive start and lock/ unlock functionality using the key remote is not operating. The message ?Smart key not found? may also appear on the Instrument Cluster. In addition the Diagnostic Trouble Codes DTCs B1DDB-55 and B1DE4-55 are stored in the Body Control Module (BCM).

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.
