NOTE: The bolt that threads into the doubler is circled in Figure 11 and Figure 12. There is another bolt
symmetrically on the other side of the vehicle. These bolts are prone to shearing in the event of front skid plate
damage (Figure 12).
• Recommend replacement of the fastener if a fastener attaching the front skid plate to the doubler is damaged
or stripped.
• Re-tap the fastener hole if a fastener hole is damaged and the fastener cannot withstand full torque.
• Recommend the replacement of the front skid plate if the front skid plate, or part of the skid plate, is detached,
or not covering the baseplate.
• Recommend the replacement of the HV cables if the HV cables are damaged above the front skid plate.
• Recommend HV battery replacement if:
o A passthrough is damaged above the front skid plate.
o The HV battery enclosure fails leak test due to impact.
o The HV battery enclosure has low isolation due to impact.
NOTE: Do not drill new holes in any part of the HV battery, skid plates, rails, or baseplate.
