Is there some regulation that requires them to issue one when they learn of a problem. Is there a regulation that requires them to publish them?

a TSB is nothing like a recall

a TSB can be something as simple as telling the techs to zip their fly when working on a Nissan. Its really only a guide. their are no requirements for them to apply a TSB to your car.

Well, I know the NHTSA keeps a database of TSBs. Does Nissan just voluntarily submit them to the government?

I'm sure there is regulation of some sort...

but you'll notice that database can be a year out of date at times.
