Dorman - OE Solutions Hood Release Cable P/N:912-011
When the hood refuses to pop at the pull of the release handle, the Dorman hood release cable 912-560 is a durably built replacement for a worn-out or broken rear hood release cable. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2020-2024 Ford Escape, 2021-2024 Ford Bronco Sport and 2022-2024 Ford Maverick. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list and engine details.
The hood release cable is part of the link between the release handle and the hood latch. It carries the pull that lets the latch release the hood. Over time a cable can stretch, fray, bind or snap. The handle may then pull loosely without releasing the hood, or it may feel stiff and stuck. If a failed rear cable is the cause, this Dorman hood cable assembly replaces it on the listed vehicles. Check the latch and handle as well, because they can cause similar symptoms.
