Official summary

Some Model X vehicles are equipped with front door outer belt seals that apply excess pressure to the front door glass, potentially causing excess noise, vibration, or harshness (NVH), slow door glass movement, and/or unintended activation of door glass anti-pinch functionality.

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.
