Description of the problem	While driving in high winds, hood flutters..... Rises up about 1/2-1 inch due to stretching of hood clamps. While it hasn't broke, i have read of it breaking on jeep forums. I would think over time with solar exposure, temperature changes and repeated stress, the possibility of failure would be great. I was in new mexico in high wind conditions and two lane highways with trucks coming by at high speeds so admittedly the worst conditions, but it does not seem like a safe system. The single metal central latch does not seem likely to hold if the side plastic/rubber clamps fail. At highway speeds, this could be catastrophic. Regardless, it is distracting to the driver.
