Official summary

Some vehicles may exhibit a groan noise from the front brakes when braking at a very low speed (approximately 6 mph / 10 km/h). This may be caused by a brake torque variation at that speed due to an inappropriate machining process of the brake disc surface.

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.
