I READ IN THE PAPER YOU WERE INVESTIGATING HOODS OPENING ON 1997 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEES. MY JEEP HOOD CAME OPEN WHILE I WAS DRIVING DOWN I-65 IN ALABAMA APPROXIMATELY AT THE DATE LISTED IN THE QUESTIONAIRE. THAT DATE IS AN ESTIMATE. I WAS DRIVING AT ABOUT 65 MPH WHEN THE HOOD POPPED UP, PARTIALLY OBSCURING MY VISION. I WAS NEAR AN EXIT, SO I MANAGED TO SAFELY GET OFF THE ROAD AND STOP AND RE-LATCH THE HOOD. AT THE TIME I THOUGHT I MUST HAVE NOT CLOSED IT PROPERLY AFTER CHECKING THE OIL, BUT NOW THAT I KNOW THERE IS AN INVESTIGATION UNDERWAY I THOUGHT IT WAS WISE TO REPORT THIS INCIDENT ANYWAY. I CAN NOT CONFIRM OR DENY THAT I IMPROPERLY CLOSED THE HOOD BEFORE THIS INCIDENT I JUST DON'T REMEMBER. DT
