Ford Recall : Ford/Hoods
1996 Ford Mustang
This condition can result in total separation of the outer hood panel.
Structure — Body — Hood
- Summary
- Vehicle description: Passenger vehicles and mini vans. Tearing of the bond between the inner and outer hood panels during minor front end collisions can result in a gap at the leading edge of the hood. Air forced between the inner and outer panels can produce enough pressure to force the outer panel upward.
- Actions
- Dealers will inspect the hood area for any damage along the leading edge of the hood. If there is any evidence of bond separation, the hood will be replaced. If there is no evidence of bond separation, additional adhesive will be applied between the inner and outer hood panels.
