Hinge used for the Hood.

• Helps you open and close your hood

Similar to the doors and windows on your house, the engine hood on your INFINITI relies on hinges to open and close. And just like your home's doors and windows, a damaged, broken, or old Hood Hinge (Left) can make closing and opening your engine hood troublesome. Keep your INFINITI engine hood working like it should with a Hood Hinge (Left) replacement from genuine INFINITI Parts.

A Hood Hinge (Left) on your INFINITI can be easy to forget about, especially if you're not popping your hood open very often. But just because your hood usually stays closed and latched doesn't mean an old or damaged Hood Hinge (Left) should be ignored! If your engine hood has a damaged, worn, or loose Hood Hinge (Left), your INFINITI's engine hood can lift up or separate from your vehicle due to the force from the wind while you're driving — whether you're driving highway speeds or taking it a bit slower.

If one hood hinge on your INFINITI is damaged and it causes the hood to shift while you drive, your other hood hinge may get damaged as well, leading to added repair needs.

To check if your INFINITI has a damaged Hood Hinge (Left), open your vehicle's hood. Check for resistance, and see if the hood won't open all the way or opens too much. Look closely at your Hood Hinge (Left), and inspect it for wear, loose or missing pieces that could have fallen out while driving, or visible cracks. If the hinges or the hood squeaks while you're opening it, it could be an indication of a worn out Hood Hinge (Left).
