I had a body shop repair the coyote/car collision damage. The body shop does excellent work, but now my hood wont open. The pull handle inside the cabin wont work, when i pull on it, nothing happens, and it doesnt spring back into place when i let go of it. What could be wrong and how to remedy it???

This should get you in.



Nothing runs like a Deere.


Or just take it back and make them fix it. You should have plenty of time before you really need to open the hood anyway.

Sounds like they may not have reconnected the linkage for the latch. You should take it back to the body shop and have them fix it for you.
