Official summary

New Subaru Recall Campaign: WQS-54 Driver Assist System Delay in Warning Indicator. The programming of the driver assist system will not detect a fault in one of the associated system components. In the event of brake lamp switch (BLS) failure, the Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) correctly detects the BLS failure, but the driver assist system will be delayed in detecting the BLS failure.

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.
