Details

On certain vehicles, the cable between the actuating lever for the secondary hood latch and the secondary latch may become corroded over time.

This could cause the secondary hood latch to remain in the open position when the hood is closed.

If the vehicle were to be driven with the primary hood latch disengaged, or primary hood latch is released while driving, the secondary hood latch may not hold the hood closed while the vehicle is in motion.

If this were to occur, it could compromise the driver’s ability to see the road and its users, as well as cause damage to the windshield.

These issues could result in a crash causing injury and/or property damage.

Correction: Dealers will replace the secondary hood latch cable.
