On certain trucks, the hood travel limiting shock bracket may fail. Should the shock separate while the hood is being opened, it would allow the hood to keep tilting forward, possibly injuring its operator or a bystander. Correction: Dealers will replace the hood travel limiting shock connection pin and retention system with an updated version.
