problem #1

2008Jan 20

Explorer XLT V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 96,000 miles

I went to try and jump start my car, because it is an explorer so obviously when it is cold it won't start, and the hood won't stay open! It stays open for about a second then slowly shuts. This is so annoying because I have to use the thing that you use to get the lug nuts off of your tires to prop open my hood to jump start my car or do anything. If anyone knows how to fix this let me know!!
