2016 Cascadia hood won’t open and won’t close

SOLVED. Pulled the hood down from the handle in the middle of the hood (you will need to pull it HARD) once it was open, I sprayed PB blaster on the bad shock and pushed it down. It’ll take a little bit of pushing to get it all the way down. This is just a temporary solution to get moving. The shock will need to be replaced.

Good morning.

Woke up this morning and did my PTI, I went to close the hood and she won’t close, tried to close it and it won’t close either! Now it’s stuck open about a foot and half and will only let me open it another half foot. Any advice would be appreciated.

 

This was exactly the problem. It was seized to oblivion lol. I had to pull it open from the handle in the middle of the hood and sprayed some PB Blaster on the shock and that did it. I can at least get moving now and will fix on the weekend. Thanks for the reply.
