    i was recently in a *slight* fender bender. no noticeable damange -
    except - the pin at the front of the hood that holds it down to the
    body won't release when i pull the interior release. the cable is
    moving, i can see that it's working, as is the moveable part that
    normally releases the pin. it seems that the pin is catching on the
    grommet that it is supposed to release out of, and i have to pull the
    pin forward with a crowbar to get it to pop up through the grommet.

    do i have to adjust the angle of the pin? is this the problem? did
    it get bent back in the fender bender?
