  "textContent": "A vehicular front fascia system includes an active hood system and a vehicular front fascia. The front fascia includes an exterior body structure providing a leading surface of a vehicle equipped with the vehicular front fascia system, a compliant mechanism disposed interior of the exterior body structure of the vehicle, and a sensor tube disposed within a jaw portion of the compliant mechanism. The compliant mechanism includes an arm portion and the jaw portion. The arm portion is movable relative to the impact beam to impart a compression force at the jaw portion based on an impact at the exterior body structure. The sensor tube generates a signal indicative of the impact at the exterior body structure based on detection of the compression force at the jaw portion.",
