What NHTSA recorded

Secondary hood latch components may have been improperly positioned during assembly. If the hood is not closed tightly, or is inadvertently released, the secondary latch may not work and the hood may fly up without prior warning.

Remedy

The hood assembly will be inspected and the hood and latch components will be adjusted, if necessary, without charge to the owner.
