Is the hood of your Nissan no longer staying as firmly bolted as it did before? Or, does it stick whenever you attempt to open the hood? It could be time to replace your Nissans Hood Latch. The hood of your Nissan protects your engine and its essential parts from weather elements and other matter, but its equally important for it to be easily opened when your vehicle is due for maintenance and repair. The latch is what releases the hood and allows it to open when you need it to and hold down the hood when youre driving. If your hood cant stay securely latched when youre traveling, it could disengage, open mid-drive, block your view, and cause damage to your windshield. These latches can be warped or twisted during an accident or fall prey to everyday wear and tear.
The Hood Latch is one of the simplest parts of your vehicle. When you shut the hood, the latch slides over a catch, and a spring snaps the latch in place and holds it tight. When you try to open the hood, the cable opens, allowing the latch to bypass the catch. And then, you should be able to move your fingers under the hood to unlatch it completely.
Its possible to install both your hood latch and assembly yourself, but the process might be complicated depending on your Nissan year. Youll also want to consider replacing the entire latch assembly all at once, as well as the hook and eye.
