“My wife was driving our 2000 Dodge ram 1500 4x4 pickp truck on a freeway when the hood of the truck released. The hood bent backwards and smashed into the windshield. My wife was able to use the sideview mirrors to direct the vehicle to the shoulder. The dealership is in the process of replacing the front hood, windshield, rearview mirror, fix fenders, fix the passenger door, and replace the hood latches.”
