What this part does
The right (passenger) side hood hinge is a structural pivot mechanism that secures the aluminum hood panel to the cowl area of the vehicle chassis. It dictates the precise opening arc of the hood and works in conjunction with the gas-charged lift struts to support the weight of the panel safely in the upright position. This hinge also plays a critical role in maintaining even panel gaps along the fenders and front bumper when the hood is closed. When a hinge becomes bent from a front-end impact or seizes due to lack of lubrication, the hood will sit unevenly, bind during opening, or require excessive force to engage the primary safety latch.

Before you order
Verify that you are replacing the right-hand (passenger) hinge, as left and right sides have mirrored geometry and cannot be interchanged. It is strongly advised to inspect and potentially replace the hood lift strut on the affected side; a failed strut forces the hinge to bear twisting loads it was not designed for, which can bend the replacement part. When installing, leave the chassis mounting bolts hand-tight to allow for micro-adjustments to the hood-to-fender panel gaps before applying final torque.
