Official summary

Some 2023 F-Super Duty vehicles may exhibit static in the audio system when operating various electrical components such as power windows/roof opening panel. This may be due to the body side ground cable fastener G119 being loose. Inspect the body side ground cable fastener G119 for proper tightness of 6 lb-ft (8 Nm). If the body side ground cable fastener G119 is tightened properly to 6 lb-ft (8 Nm) and the concern persists, refer to Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 415-00 for normal diagnostics.

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.
