T-Tt-0537-19_rev: Tt: The Blind Spot Monitor (Bsm) Sensor Angle Inspection Is Used To Confirm That The Bsm Sensor Is Within The Specified Angle Before Perform safety campaign
official tsb record
Whole generationSingle sourceEvidence: Limited confidence
The cited record is bound to model year 2021; no broader incidence claim is made.
- Symptom
- TT: The blind spot monitor (BSM) sensor angle inspection is used to confirm that the BSM sensor is within the specified angle before performing axis beam adjustment.
- Why it matters
- The official record identifies a condition that deserves candidate-specific inspection and record verification.
Observed complaint mileage band; not an incidence probability
Reported onset roughly 117,000–117,000 mi (median 117,000 mi).
Onset band unknown.
Based on 1 usable report (1 censored). Complaint mileage is an observed report band, not a population incidence estimate.
What to inspect
- Check the VIN for open NHTSA actions, then ask the inspector to test the named system and document the result.
Pro check: Independent pre-purchase inspection.
Mitigation
- Treat the official record as a targeted inspection lead, not proof that this candidate has the condition.

“TT: The blind spot monitor (BSM) sensor angle inspection is used to confirm that the BSM sensor is within the specified angle before performing axis beam adjustment. When used in conjunction with the repair manual, these BSM tips leverage SSTs and readily available tools to support sensor angle confirmation in varying shop environments.”
