The hood of the car popped up twice when driving into a head wind on the highway. It suddenly pops up an inch or two as if it is about to open. This happened on our first trip on the interstate. I took it in - the dealer could find nothing wrong - and adjusted the bumpers. The next trip driving 65 into a cross wind it popped up again. We had to stop both times to close the hood and were relieved it did not come all the way up. I wonder if the latch is not sufficient for the design to handle a strong wind. The consumer requested to withdraw complaint stating that the latch did not come undone. The hood of the vehicle flexed up afetr being blown by strong wind.
