Bulletin No: 09-029/12Last Issued: 07/27/2012
Subject: HOOD VIBRATION WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED
APPLICABLE MODEL(S)/VINS
2013 CX-5 vehicles with VINs lower than JM3KE******120257 (produced before April 18, 2012)
DESCRIPTION
Some vehicles may exhibit a condition where the hood vibrates when driving at speeds of 110 Km/h (68 mph) or more.
The amount of sealant used to fill in the space between the inner frame and outer panel at the bottom area of the hood is insufficient. If the sealant detaches (as shown below on the left), it may cause the hood to vibrate. The amount of sealant has been increased during vehicle production to eliminate the concern.
Customers having this concern should have their vehicle repaired using the following repair procedure.
