Zusammenfassung:A motor vehicle frame includes a tow eye receiver bracket receiving recess. A mechanical fastener extends into the tow eye receiver bracket receiving recess. A tow eye receiver bracket is arranged in the tow eye receiver bracket receiving recess. The tow eye receiver bracket includes a base member, a first side member extending outwardly from the base member and a second side member extending outwardly from the base member forming a substantially C-shaped cross-section. At least one of the first and second side members and the base member includes a decoupling feature engageable with the mechanical fastener. The decoupling feature prevents movement of the tow eye receiver bracket outwardly of the frame member and enables movement of the tow eye receiver bracket into the frame member.
