The 2014-2018 Jeep Cherokee Hood Release Cable OEM New is an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) auto part designed specifically for use in the 2014-2018 model years of the Jeep Cherokee. This product is a replacement hood release cable, which is an essential component that connects the hood release handle inside the vehicle to the latch mechanism that holds the hood closed.
The hood release cable can become worn or damaged over time, and if it breaks, the hood will no longer be able to be released from inside the vehicle. This can be a major inconvenience, as it would make it difficult to perform routine maintenance or repairs on the engine. Additionally, if the hood cannot be opened, it could be a safety hazard in case of an emergency.
To install a Hood Release Cable on a 2014-2018 Jeep Cherokee, you can follow these steps:
-
Open the hood of the vehicle and locate the hood release cable assembly.
-
Locate the release cable on the latch end and remove it from the latch mechanism.
-
Locate the cable on the handle end and remove it from the handle mechanism.
-
Remove any retainers or clips holding the cable to the vehicle frame or body.
-
Install the new cable in the reverse order, starting with the handle end and then securing the latch end to the latch mechanism.
-
Route the cable through any retainers or clips that were removed in Step 4.
-
Test the new hood release cable to ensure that it is functioning properly.
That’s it! Your new Hood Release Cable for your 2014-2018 Jeep Cherokee should now be installed and allowing for easy and reliable hood release.
