#27911, "Hood rattles at high speeds..."


          

Hey, my hood rattles at anything over 30 mph, it just starts kindof going up & down... looks really weird. Have any of you experienced this? What would fix it, hood pins?

Your hood latch bracket might be bent and isn't catching the latch all the way. You can try adjusting it, or just get hood pins to be safe. Plus, you'll get that "fast" look! emoji

if it isn't the latch, there are 2 black rubber (around 1.5 inches wide) things on the sides just above the headlights, that screw up and down, screw them out and close your hood, see if it moves, is what they are there for.

Nah you have to replace the whole car. Keep that hood and just replace the car.
