FRONT BUMPER REMOVAL/INSTALLATION

• After the active bonnet has deployed, always newly replace the parts indicated in the active bonnet service warnings in the section dealing with the active bonnet. If the vehicle is driven without part replacement, the active bonnet may not deploy correctly. (See ACTIVE BONNET SERVICE WARNINGS.)

• If a front bumper fascia in which splitting or cracking has occurred is repaired and reused, an active bonnet sensor may mis-detect vibrations because the way that vibration was transmitted before the repair will have changed, which could result in the active bonnet not functioning normally. If splitting or cracking has occurred on the front bumper fascia, always replace the front bumper fascia and bumper retainer with new parts.

• If a front bumper fascia in which bending and dents have occurred is repaired and reused, an active bonnet sensor may mis-detect vibrations because the way that vibration was transmitted before the repair will have changed, which could result in the active bonnet not functioning normally. If bending and dents have occurred on the front bumper fascia, always replace the front bumper fascia and bumper retainer with new parts.
