FRONT FENDER JUNCTION
id091000026700
Purpose
• A front fender junction with a shock-absorbing structure has been adopted to reduce impact to pedestrians in a collision.
Function
• If a pedestrian contacts the bonnet or the front fender in a collision, the front fender junction deforms to reduce impact energy.
Construction
• The front fender junction is located under the front fender panel.
• The front/back vertical wall of the front fender junction each contains a hole which causes the bracket to deform easily in a collision with a pedestrian.
Fail-safe
• Not applicable
