| Description of the problem | While accelerating after make a right hand turn, the hood flew open on my nissan altima. The hood bent back past the hinges towards the windshield. Because the hood bent back so far, it pulled the frame of the car up on both sides. I was able to pull over onto the shoulder of the safely. Hood closed and seems to latch now. I did not have any warning pop up inside the car that the hood was open. |
