Had to push hood down to get it to latch? Please help

I agree withe rest of the people you are never suppose to push down on the stock hood. My body shop guy told me not to because it will cause ripple on the hood. Just drop the hood if it won't go make some adjustment to the latch.

From what I've been told (by a dealer tech), you really shouldn't drop the hood at all, but rather sit it down and then push it down to latch.
Something about it being fiberglass and it cracking.

Please post what dealer employs that tech so members can stay away.

your latch may be some how messed up and may need service or a new one, or your hood is not correctly aligned(sp) if you're car was in an accident from the previous owner, then it is possible that the hood is off center, causing it not to latch correctly....
