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.

AIRBAG INFLATOR2017-05-16. Service bulletin. AIR BAGS:FRONTAL:DRIVER SIDE:INFLATOR MODULE. DEALER MESSAGE - ON OCTOBER 1, 2015, AMERICAN HONDA, IN COMPLIANCE WITH A REQUEST FROM THE NHTSA, WILL CONSOLIDATE THE FOLLOWING THREE NATIONAL PASSENGER'S AIRBAG INFLATOR SAFETY RECALL SERVICE BULLETINS. THE BULLETINS WILL BE CONSOLIDATED INTO A NEW DOCUMENT, SERVICE BULLETIN 15-067: SAFETY RECALL: FRONT PASSENGER’S AIRBAG INFLATOR CAN BE OVER-PRESSURIZED, WHICH WILL CONTAIN NEW WARRANTY CODING TO BE USED ON ALL REPAIR ORDERS OPENED ON OR AFTER OCTOBER 1, 2015. ALL REPAIR ORDERS OPENED ON OR BEFORE SEPTEMBER 30, 2015 SHOULD BE FILED USING THE SERVICE BULLETIN THAT WAS APPLICABLE AT THAT TIME.

ENSURE THAT YOUR DEALERSHIP IS FILING UNDER THE CORRECT BULLETIN, BASED ON THE RO OPEN DATE, TO AVOID SUBSEQUENT CLAIM REJECTION.
