Dorman - OE Solutions Hood Latch Assembly P/N:820-899
If a hood that no longer opens or closes properly traces back to the latch, the Dorman OE Solutions 820-003 hood latch is a direct-fit replacement for the 2013-2019 Ford Escape, 2012-2018 Ford Focus and 2015-2019 Lincoln MKC. It is designed to match the original equipment latch in fit and function, and it is made of corrosion-resistant materials for dependable service. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for engine details.
The hood latch holds the hood securely closed while you drive and lets it go when you work the hood release. When the latch wears or sticks, the hood may stop latching shut, refuse to release, or not close the way it should. If the original latch is the cause, this Dorman hood latch replaces it.
