Official summary
On 2021 Bronco Sport vehicles, in order to prevent possible upholstery damage in the rear seat backrest or seat belts, make sure that the seat belts are not fastened and fully retracted. Make sure other accessories that are fastened using the rear seat belt buckle are removed and placed aside before folding the seat backrest. Failure to do so may result in non-warrantable damage to the rear seat backrest or seat belts.

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.
