Hood Release Cable for 2008-2013 Toyota Highlander - Dorman 912-418

When a stretched or snapped cable leaves the hood stuck shut, the Dorman hood release cable 912-418 from Dorman - OE Solutions replaces it. The cable carries the pull from the release handle inside the cabin to the hood latch, so the latch can let go when you pull the lever. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 2008-2013 Toyota Highlander. Application details are in the "Vehicles it fits" section.

Dorman describes this part as a hood release cable assembly built to replace a worn-out or broken cable on the listed applications. If a failed cable is why your hood won't open, this assembly replaces it.

• Direct replacement: made to match the original cable on the 2008-2013 Toyota Highlander.
• Durable construction: manufactured within strict tolerances.
• Cost-effective solution: comparable quality at a lower cost than buying a replacement from the dealership.
• Trustworthy value: supported by a team of engineers and quality control experts in the United States.

Signs this part may need replacing: a release handle that pulls with little or no resistance, a handle that feels stiff or sticks, or a hood that won't pop when the lever is pulled. Because the hood latch can cause similar symptoms, check the whole release system before you replace the cable.
