Hood Latch Doesn't "Pop"
When I release the hood it doesn't pop up, just seems to release softly and not completely, I have to pull out the handle in the grill to completely release it. Seems like it's either the hood struts or the latch springs. The hood is heavy to lift but then when it gets about 45 degrees, the struts assist and it goes up the rest of the way, that's what makes me think it's the struts, but wanted to put it out to all of you before I bought some struts only to find I need to replace the springs.
