What is wrong

On certain vehicles, cast tow hooks change the crash pulse during a frontal barrier impacts. The airbag sensor was not calibrated for this crash pulse and may cause the airbags to deploy in lower speed impacts than design intent. Correction: Cast tow hooks will be replaced with forged tow hooks.
