Dodge Challenger: How to Open the Hood

All car owners must perform some basic maintenance on their own. For example, you will need to be the one who checks the oil and adds window washer fluid.

Opening the hood is a simple process. However, it can be frustrating if you don’t know where the lever is or how to release the safety catch. Below are directions for opening the hood of a Dodge Challenger.

  1. Pull the lever under the dash. The lever will be on the left side.
  2. Exit the vehicle and walk to the front.
  3. Slide your hand under the hood.
  4. Push the safety catch to the left.
  5. Lift the hood.

Closing the Hood: When closing the hood, do not slam it shut. Slamming the hood can cause damage to your car. Lower the hood down and press firmly to engage both latches.
