Like the doors and windows in your home, your Nissan's engine hood uses hinges to open and shut. And just like your home's doors and windows, a broken or damaged Hood Hinge (Left) can make opening and shutting your engine hood problematic. Ensure the engine hood on your Nissan is operating correctly with a genuine replacement Hood Hinge (Left) from Nissan Parts.
A Hood Hinge (Left) on your Nissan can be easy to forget about, especially if you're not popping your hood open very often. But just because your hood usually stays closed and latched doesn't mean an old or damaged Hood Hinge (Left) should be ignored! If you have a loose, damaged, or worn Hood Hinge (Left), the engine hood can fly up or even separate from your Nissan from the force of the wind while you drive — even if you aren't driving highway speeds.
If you have one hood hinge that is broken and it leads to your hood shifting while you drive, your other hood hinge may get damaged as well, causing further repair needs.
To find out if your Nissan has a damaged Hood Hinge (Left), pop your vehicle's hood. Feel for resistance, and check if the hood opens too much or not enough. Perform a visual inspection of your Hood Hinge (Left), and look for signs of wear, missing bolts that may have come loose and fallen out while driving, or visible cracks. Additionally, if the hood sounds squeaky when you're opening or closing it, a worn Hood Hinge (Left) could be the issue.
