problem #1

Nov 072004

Camry 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 110,000 miles
While driving on the 190-N approximately 3 miles from my home, my hood did pop open and was ejected from my vehicle traveling about 100 feet striking another vehicle traveling in the same direction causing damage to same. My mechanic did state that the latch was extensively covered in rust. I am currently waiting for my insurance company to look at the damage and investigate as to the reason my latch did not work releasing my hood. This could have caused many fatalities had it been a busy week day. I was driving with my 8 year old son, thank god I kept a clear head and was able to keep control of my vehicle pulling it to the side of the road. The vehicle that was hit did stop avoiding the hood from striking his windshield by inches definitely saving his life. I need to know how this could have happened.
