Official summary

Some 2020-2021 Edge/Nautilus vehicles may exhibit a Trailer Disconnected message in the instrument panel cluster (IPC). This may be due to the As-Built configuration in the trailer control module (TRM). To correct the condition, update the As-Built data of the TRM. For claiming, use causal part 19H332 and applicable labor times found in Section 10 of the Service Labor Time Standards (SLTS) Manual.

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.
