Hood Won't stay Latched Down

Any Ideas why my Hood keeps popping? I have tried to adjust the Rubber on each side of the Front of the Hood. It just all the sudden will just Pop and I have to pull over and Shut it. Then a while later it will happen again...

 

the latch is probably seizing up. i dont have a picture but theres a spot on the latch you can use a screw driver and a hammer on and hit it down.. should latch then (at least that was my problem before i replaced the latch)

 

Take off and clean the latch then re-grease it.

 

Looks like a few bolts and its Off. Just one more stupid thing im dealing with.

 

Try loosening the latch and raise it up a tad so the hood catches sooner.

 

Maybe take the hook/loop off the hood and shove it down on the latch and see if the latch mechanism moves freely.

Then clean and lube the latch and cable.

 

I had the same issue with the latch and did this. Worked for me - only problem is that if I pull hard enough on the hood it'll pop open.
At least it's not popping up while I'm driving

 

Check your hood release cable. If it doesn’t snap back freely when you pull on it your hood release mechanism might be stuck, stuck on open. A temporary solution is have a hook hand tool. Use that to push the release mechanism to the right, resetting the hood latch. The mechanism is at the bottom, hooked to a steel cable. Fix it solution is to clean it. Dirt and grime will cause it to stay open. Hope this helps.
