For the air intake for the intercooler (hood air intake), the material is not appropriate, and the shape of the securing parts is not ideally designed. Therefore, the securing parts may lose some strength due to degradation over time, which is caused by heat from the engine room etc. If this problem is left unattended, repeated expansion and contraction in the high temperature environment may cause cracks on the parts, and in the worst case, the hood air intake could fall off and cause obstruction to other traffic.
