Service bulletin B20008
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
Due to a customer complaint of a cracked spring post, an internal quality inspection found that a galvanic barrier had not been installed between the galvanized Aeroskirt Spring Posts and the aluminum mounting plates on the bottom of the trailer. Over an extended period of time, this can lead to Galvanic Corrosion between the two mating surfaces. This bulletin outlines the installation of a barrier between the two disimallar components. It is also possible to damage fasteners while removing the Spring Post when performing this bulletin. Even though each panel of the Aeroskirt is tethered to the trailer’s underside, additional screws will also be added as part of this repair to ensure proper and adequate resecurement of the Spring Post assemblies.
