| Description of the problem | I was driving on the tollway and i heard a loud noise as if someone had pulled the hood release and saw that my hood was fluttering up and down. When i came to a stop, my hood had in fact popped open and i had to slam the hood back shut. Fortunately it did not pop open fully to where it was against my windshield and blocking my view. I think there may be a problem with the hood latch. |
