Mercury Lynx Hood Latch

The Mercury Lynx Hood Latch secures the front lid, protecting essential engine components from theft or rain, as well as sudden fly-ups on the road. The original Mercury cars in the Lynx range applied a tough all-steel Hood Latch that clamps when the hood drops and releases using a pull handle inside connected by a cable. Later Mercury versions kept this arrangement but put a lightweight reinforced plastic housing around the steel mechanism for lighter weight and stronger impact resistance. Both generations have an automatic secondary catch that latches the panel in the event that the primary Hood Latch loosens and the hood lifts while the vehicle is in motion and obstructs your vision. The differences only involve the use of improved materials, as everything from mounting holes, dimensions, and two-step release sequence remains unchanged. Any driver can swap any component without modification. Found under the grille, the Hood Latch remains out of reach until the lever inside the cabin is pulled. This gives every Lynx model the same first line of defense and means that loyal Mercury Lynx owners can expect dependable Hood Latch performance.
