The WPC controller can switch from 'standby mode' to 'active mode' potentially causing the 12V auxiliary battery to discharge while the vehicle is parked.

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.
