I tried to release the hood by way of pulling the interior latch, it did not open. I called the dealership they told me to bring it in the next day. I got out of the car and pressed on it (to be sure it was closed) and drove away from the gas station. I was driving 30 miles per hour when the hood let go and hyperextended and flew up in front of me and i was unable to see anything.

I had to turn the car off and turn it back on. Pushing on the gas, the car would not accelerate to the more than 40 mph. I turned the car around to go home (about 1 mile away) as i didn't feel it was safe to drive and…

All i remember was one second, i was driving and the next, i couldn't see anything and was braking & screaming, on a wild, bumpy ride, not knowing where to steer because i couldn't see past the airbags…

My car started this issue around 84,000 miles. Once a month it looses power usually after i'm stopped.

I get out there and then it acts up while i'm trying to pull out in traffic. It's seems to not shift gears also the engine will just scream. I also learned by shutting…
