Unhappy HOOD FLUTTER

Looking for some guidance to remedy high speed hood flutter. Bump stops up, down or in the middle, at 90mph the hood has recently started flapping like a sail in the wind on my 2013GT.

When the car is parked can you move/wiggle the hood by hand? It may be the hood latch or maybe the brackets that are in the back of the hood. Let me know

Megaman.......thanks for the prompt reply and suggestion. Sorry to report the hood is stable, no movement whatsoever. Any other thoughts are welcome.

Do you know if it’s a stock hood or aftermarket?

Megaman....thanks for the follow-up. It's the OEM hood which has been on the car since new, now 135,000 ago.

The only other thing I can think of is, tires. When was the last time they were replaced or they might need to be balanced
