When the hood won't pop, the Dorman hood release cable, part number 912-078 from Dorman - OE Solutions, is built to replace a worn-out or broken cable. It is a direct-fit replacement for the 2002-2007 Jeep Liberty, and it comes with the release handle, so you replace the cable and the handle in one job.
A hood release cable links the release handle to the hood latch. Pulling the handle draws the cable, which releases the latch so the hood can be opened. If the original hood release cable on the 2002-2007 Jeep Liberty has stretched, frayed or snapped and is the reason the hood won't open, this assembly replaces it.
- Direct replacement: Designed to match the original cable on the listed vehicles.
- Durable construction: Made within strict tolerances for dependable longevity.
- Cost-effective solution: Comparable quality at a lower price than buying the replacement from the dealership.
- Trustworthy value: Backed by a team of engineers and quality control experts in the United States.
