Official summary

Some 2022 F-Super Duty vehicles equipped with a trailer brake controller and a 12.3 inch center display screen may exhibit diagnostic trouble code (DTC) U0140:82 stored in the trailer module (TRM) after completing a TRM software update. This may be due to software parameters in the TRM. To correct the condition, uninstall Ford Diagnosis and Repair System (FDRS), removing all session files. Install the latest software level of FDRS, then perform the TRM - Trailer Module (TRM) Configuration application.

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.
