Official summary

This bulletin contains instructions for determining if a repair is needed when coolant touches a poly V-belt and/or a toothed belt.

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.
