The shape of the securing parts of the air intake for the intercooler (hood air intake) is not ideally designed, and therefore, they may deform due to heat from the engine room, and excessive stress may occur. If this problem is left unattended, repeated expansion and contraction may cause cracks on the parts, and in the worst case, the hood air intake could fall off and cause obstruction to other traffic.
