Service bulletin TIN-19-42A-001

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

This is a Technical Information Notice that was sent to dealers, to inform them that it is no longer necessary, on future vehicle shipments, to complete bracket adjustment for the tailgate strut popping noise, and/or to check for the grease pen mark on the brackets. However, dealers are reminded that when completing PDI on any new 2020 MY Outlander Sport, that they listen for any popping noise when opening or closing the tailgate, and contact Techline if they encounter a vehicle that exhibits the noise.

Listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned: the document says which.

A recall listed here may apply to some of the same vehicles. Only the manufacturer can say whether it applies to one vehicle.
