TSB also includes new front pads that are supposed to be revised as well. I got my dealer to do it months ago and no squeals since.

I just got mine done at service, they replaced the pads, no squeaks (yet) breaks do feel a bit softer, though, Maybe needs to be worked in to get gripper?

Really happy to hear this worked for you, but I believe this is the TSB fix that a number of people - myself included - have had in the past. It worked great for me too.. for about 10k miles. Now it’s back and I’m getting mixed answers about how to fix it.

Do you have to take the wheel off to see them?

I second that question. I am about to swap my AS setup for winter tires and would like to know if I should just buy the clips from the local dealer and add them during the swap (since I haven't experienced the brake squeal, wonder if both clips are already there).
EDIT: Not applicable to 2018 / 2019? https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/20...49116-9999.pdf

I have clips on my Front brakes and they are still squeaking when it's really cold out during reversing.
