Official summary

This is a Technical Journal: Steering Assistance Temporarily Reduced, PSCM. Disconnect the S connector on the BCSM (4/153) for 15 minutes and then reconnect it, see picture. Check that both main and support battery is charged to at least 12.4 volts /70% SoC or more. At this point we do not see any need to replace the BCSM or any other components such as steering

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.
