Service bulletin IB16-F-001D

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 CONDITION MAY BE DUE TO LIMITED SLIP DIFFERENTIAL LUBRICANT ADDITIVE NOT HAVING BEEN USED DURING THE LAST SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE OR IN A PREVIOUS REPAIR.

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