Service bulletin SB-17-31-002
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.

The noise is generated from a normal mechanical operation that has no detrimental effect on the vehicle. |
