## What is wrong

VEHICLES WERE BUILT WITH A HOOD LATCH SKID PLATE NOT PROPERLY WELDED TO THE HOOD LATCH SUPPORT ASSEMBLY. HOOD CLOSURES MAY FRACTURE THE SKID PLATE WELDS RENDERING THE SKID PLATE NONFUNCTIONAL AND DISABLING THE SECONDARY HOOD LATCH. HOOD FLY\-UP COULD RESULT IF THE PRIMARY HOOD LATCH WERE TO FAIL.

CORRECTION: VEHICLES WILL BE INSPECTED AND SCREWS INSTALLED IN THE SKID PLATE IF REQUIRED.
