Service bulletin RTR
A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

NHTSA's summary
"A NEW FAILURE CODE HAS BEEN CREATED TO IDENTIFY SUBSEQUENT REMANUFACTURED TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENTS. THIS NEW FAILURE CODE, TMB, SHOULD BE USED WHEN A 2ND OR SUBSEQUENT REMANUFACTURED TRANSMISSION UNIT IS BEING REPLACED. TMA FAILURE CODE WILL NOW ONLY BE USED WHEN AN ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT OR NEW TRANSMISSION (PREVIOUSLY INSTALLED) IS BEING REPLACED WITH A REMANUFACTURED UNIT. THE OPERATION NUMBER WILL REMAIN THE SAME FOR BOTH FAILURE CODES. THE FOLLOW FAILURE CODE DESCRIPTIONS HAVE BEEN ADJUSTED TO READ: TMA – REPLACE OE OR NEW A/T WITH REMAN A/T TMB – REPLACE REMAN A/T WITH REMAN A/T THE TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETINS FOR REMAN TRANSMISSIONS (16-63-99R AND 03-67-12R) HAVE BEEN UPDATED TO REFLECT THIS NEW FAILURE CODE.
