hood does not open

[mike86ttype]

The hood does not open unless i bang on it a couple of time then it pops open. The have greased the latch and the struts are new and hold the hood up. what is next to try

Spray some WD-40 on it and see if that works. Also make sure it is aligned correctly.

Do you have a problem with/-- how difficult is it to close?? I'm thinking alignment also.
