Similar to the doors and windows on your house, your Nissan's engine hood uses hinges to open and shut. And similar to the hinges on your home's doors and windows, a damaged, broken, or old Hood Hinge (Right) can make opening and shutting your engine hood problematic. Keep your Nissan engine hood working like it should with a Hood Hinge (Right) replacement from genuine Nissan Parts.
A Hood Hinge (Right) on your Nissan can be easy to ignore, especially if you aren't opening your engine hood very often. But just because your engine hood normally stays closed doesn't mean an old or damaged Hood Hinge (Right) should be ignored! If you have a loose, damaged, or worn Hood Hinge (Right), 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 one Hood Hinge (Right) on your Nissan is damaged and it causes the hood to shift while you drive, the other Hood Hinge (Right) on your Nissan may also break, resulting in additional repairs.
To find out if your Nissan needs a new Hood Hinge (Right), open the hood. Check for resistance, and see if the hood won't open all the way or opens too much. Visually inspect the Hood Hinge (Right) for signs of wear, loose or missing pieces that could have fallen out while driving, or any other visible damage. Additionally, if the hood sounds squeaky when you're opening or closing it, it may be a sign of a worn Hood Hinge (Right).
