  Lock, Latch Assembly Hood

• Description:

  This genuine Ford hood latch assembly secures the front hood of the 2022-2024 F-150 Lightning, the all-electric F-150 that uses its front compartment as a lockable front trunk. The latch engages the hood striker to hold the hood or front-trunk lid firmly closed at highway speed and releases it on command so the compartment can be opened, while its secondary catch prevents the hood from flying up if the primary latch is released. Owners replace this latch when the hood will not stay latched or is hard to open, when the release feels notchy or fails, when the safety catch is bent, or when corrosion or collision damage has compromised the mechanism. A properly working latch is a safety-critical item, because an unsecured hood at speed can obstruct the driver's view. Ford catalogs list this as a Hood Latch, also shown as Latch Assembly Hood, fitting the 2022-2024 F-150 Lightning. Install by transferring the release cable and any hood-ajar switch connection, then adjust the striker and latch engagement so the hood closes flush and both the primary and secondary catches operate correctly before the vehicle is returned to service.
