## What is wrong

THE REAR BUMPER REINFORCEMENT MAY BE SUSCEPTIBLE TO FATIGUE   CRACKING UNDER EXTENDED TRAILER TOW SERVICE WHEN USING A   BUMPER\-MOUNTED TRAILER HITCH BALL. THIS COULD RESULT IN THE   BUMPER SEPARATING FROM THE VEHICLE WHILE TOWING CAUSING A   POSSIBLE CRASH OF THE TOWED VEHICLE.  CORRECTION: VEHICLES WILL BE INSPECTED AND TWO BRACKETS WILL BE   INSTALLED TO FURTHER REINFORCE THE BUMPER.
