Default Hood latch sticks
When I pull the hood lever inside, sometimes it sticks and I have to push it back in. What needs lubed?

I would venture that the hood latch is all stiff. Try lubing it up some and see what happens.

I would say oil up the hood latch itself and see if that makes a difference.
