## What is wrong

THE SECONDARY HOOD LATCH MAY NOT FULLY ENGAGE WHEN THE HOOD IS   CLOSED. IN THE EVENT THE PRIMARY LATCH RELEASES WHILE THE VEHICLE   IS IN MOTION, A PARTIALLY ENGAGED SECONDARY LATCH MIGHT NOT   RESTRAIN THE HOOD AND HOOD FLY\-UP COULD OCCUR. THIS COULD RESULT   IN OBSTRUCTED DRIVER VISIBILITY AND A POSSIBLE CRASH.

CORRECTION: HOOD LATCH WILL BE REPLACED WITH ONE OF A REVISED   DESIGN.
