WITHOUT ANY WARNING AT ALL, HOOD FLEW UP WHILE CAR WAS GETTING UP TO SPEED ON 4 LANE EXPRESSWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH. IT SMASHED AGAINST THE WINDSHIELD AND COMPLETELY BLINDED ME. I WAS ABLE TO PULL TO SHOULDER. NO INJURIES. DAMAGE TO BODY OF CAR ONLY. NO ONE ELSE IN CAR. NO OTHER TRAFFIC NEARBY. I AM NOT THE OWNER, JUST THE DRIVER. VERY FRIGHTENING EXPERIENCE.
