Official summary

On certain 2015-2020 Model X vehicles, the soldering of the connector tabs on the forward-facing camera(s) heater grid may not meet internal specifications, resulting in a small area of the windshield in front of the camera(s) to remain fogged in colder weather. The condition does not impact active safety features or windshield defogging and defrosting performance. The condition may cause certain Autopilot features to be limited or unavailable, which the customer is alerted to if trying to engage them.

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.
