Official summary

While attempting to unbolt the third-row seat to perform, or to gain access to perform another required repair, one or more of the bolts may not easily loosen. Applying addition force to loosen the bolts may cause the seat anchor body-nuts to break free from their welds. The bolts will then just spin, not allowing the seat to be removed.

Vehicles covered

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.
