Description of the problem	Driving my kia in freeway about 55 mph and unexpectedly hood open and crash my windshield, i try to drive to freeway side with the little visible space between dashboard and hood, a guy driving besides me help with the traffic so i reduce speed and hit guardrail, i damage my bumper and all right front side of my kia, i was thinking that was my bad luck or that i didn't close hood properly. I tried to put hood in place and using an ethernet cable to secure hood and drive at 10-20 mph to home. Next day i call a guy from craigslist to replace windshield, i remove hood and tried to unbend it, fix latches and tried it to put it in place i buy one used and replace old one, i am still using my vehicle because want to avoid fines and i was not physically affected, just the scare and vehicle damage, i didn't report incident to police. I just read about latch kia problem, kia's recall number sc134, i am still using my kia because cannot buy another car for the moment, all my kia is messed up in the body(bumper/right passenger side, etc. But motor/trans worked like a champ but cosmetically looks very ugly because that incident with open hood. Can kia pay for my repairs?
