| 1997 | LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES:HOOD:LATCH | THE HOOD IS SUPPOSED TO BE SUPPORTED BY SHOCKS, BUT THEY FAIL AFTER A FEW YEARS. WHEN IT FIRST HAPPENED ABOUT A YEAR OR SO AGO, THE HOOD SLAMMED DOWN MOMENTS AFTER MY HEAD WAS UNDER IT. NOW, IT WON'T STAY UP AT ALL. I ASKED MY DEALERSHIP WHY THEY DIDN'T TELL ME IT WOULDN'T STAY UP AND THEY SAID B/C IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM AFTER A FEW YEARS AND THEY DON'T RELY ON IT ANYWAY. SEEMS THEY SHOULD TELL THEIR CUSTOMERS THAT AND RETURN TO A ROD-SUPPORTED HOOD. THERE IS A POTENTIAL FOR MAJOR INJURY TO UNAWARE CUSTOMERS, AND THE FACT THAT THE DEALERSHIPS KNOW ABOUT IT (AND DON'T TELL) IS SCARY.*AK |
