Similar to the doors and windows on your house, your Nissan's engine hood uses hinges to close and open. And like the door and window hinges in your home, a Hood Hinge (Left) that's damaged, old, or broken can make closing and opening your engine hood troublesome. Keep your Nissan engine hood working like it should with a Hood Hinge (Left) replacement from genuine Nissan Parts.
A Hood Hinge (Left) on your Nissan's engine hood may seem like an easy part to overlook, especially if you aren't opening your engine hood very often. But just because your hood usually stays closed and latched doesn't mean a damaged Hood Hinge (Left) should be left alone! If a Hood Hinge (Left) is broken, loose, or worn, you run the risk of your hood lifting or separating from your Nissan due to the force from the wind while you're driving—whether you're driving highway speeds or taking it a bit slower.
If you have one Hood Hinge (Left) that is broken and it allows your engine hood to shift while you're driving, the other Hood Hinge (Left) on your Nissan can become damaged in the process, causing further repair needs.
To find out if your Nissan needs a new Hood Hinge (Left), open your vehicle's hood. Check to see if your hood is hard to open, won't open all the way, or opens too much. Look closely at your Hood Hinge (Left), and inspect it for wear, loose or missing pieces that could have fallen out while driving, or cracks. If the hinges or the hood squeaks while you're opening it, it could be an indication of a worn out Hood Hinge (Left).
