2014 V6 Coupe Hood Bounce --- HELP!!! Please.
 
Hey all,

Just purchased a '14 Premium V6 Coupe, in Grabber Blue. I absolutely LOVE this car...the 305 HP makes this thing HAUL ASS! I actually wanted a 302 BOSS, a GT 350, or GT500, but I didn't have the funds for those.

Anyway, I've noticed after the past weeks of driving --- actually interstate commuting --- that at speeds of 65+ MPH, the hood bounces. I don't know how else to describe it. It vibrates and bounces, lifting up by about maybe an eighth to a quarter of an inch, then bounces back down, then back up. It is also really loud, makes a humming/vibrating sound. I'm worried the hood might fly off.

The car is new, has not had any body work/modifications, and has not had any accidents or fender-benders.

I'm stumped about what to do. Anyone have suggestions on this???

Thank you !

There are usually rubber stoppers that can be adjusted under the hood, I would guess that they have been changed from the stock setting, try that, and good luck! :)

Solved! Pro tip! Thanks man.
Somehow they were adjusted almost all the way out

Hey, I did some good! :D
I'm glad it worked out for ya, just make sure they aren't up too much or else you will have problems closing the hood.

Yep! Thanks man. You saved me $100, was going to buy a hood pin kit, now don't need it!
