What NHTSA recorded

Production tolerance errors could allow accidental hood opening. If the hood is not securely latched in the fully locked position, driving at high speed or hitting a large bump could cause the hood to open without warning.

Remedy

Dealers will inspect and replace defective hood latches at no charge.
