Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“The contact owns a 2004 Chevrolet Blazer. When the contacts wife went to start the vehicle, it failed to start. She looked under the hood and tapped the battery cables with a hammer. The vehicle restarted and she shut the hood. While driving 60 MPH, the hood popped open and smashed into her windshield, causing the glass to shatter. She pulled over and attempted to close the hood, but it would not budge. She managed to drive the vehicle back to her residence. The contact was able to shut the hood and tie it securely with a rope. He drove the vehicle to the dealer. …”
