Official summary

This Advanced Technical Information Notice was sent to dealers as an update to ATIN-20-SR-003B informing that due to a parts availability delay of the Crossmember, customer vehicles requiring a replacement of the crossmember are unable to be completed at this time. Additionally, this notice informed dealers that an Interim Owner Notification Letter was mailed to affected owners on July 17th, 2020 to inform customers that MMNA is making every effort to establish a remedy and will contact them again by mail with a follow-up recall notice once parts are in stock and the final remedy is available.

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.
