Official summary

Product campaign 95-c-12 - certain 1995 lumina and monte carlo model vehicles have a right hand lower control arm tapered ball joint mounting hole that was incorrectly machined.

To correct this condition, dealers are to replace the right hand lower control arm and ball joint stud on all involved vehicles. *tw

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.
