Dorman - OE Solutions Hood Release Cable P/N:912-192
When a tug on the release handle no longer frees the hood, the Dorman hood release cable 912-424 is built to take the place of a worn-out or broken cable on the 2013-2018 Ford Escape and 2015-2018 Lincoln MKC. This hood release cable assembly links the interior release handle to the hood latch. It carries your pull on the handle to the latch so the hood can be unlatched and raised.
Signs this Dorman hood cable may need replacing include a hood that stays latched when the handle is pulled, a handle that feels slack or loose, and a handle that takes unusual force to operate. If a stretched or broken cable is the cause, this assembly replaces it. The latch and handle can produce similar symptoms, so check them as well before replacing parts. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for full application details.
