Hood Latch problems of the 2001 Dodge Dakota

After checking my battery connections and fluid levels I closed my hood as normal and about 24 hours later I was driving my truck and the hood latches failed and the hood opened up with a heavy gust of wind. I was driving about 30-40 miles per hour and had to make a blind stop on the road. This road was rarely traveled and fortunately no one was hurt. My wife and my son were with me. The event bent my hood back to the windshield and over extended the hood hinges. Damage to the hood, hinges and mating areas of the truck.

We have a 2001 Dodge ram truck. The hood blew open on the freeway, completely damaging the windshield. Further it was an extreme danger to ourselves on other vehicles on the road. A recall has been issued for 1994 - 1999 Dodge ram hoods opening. Chrysler will not do anything about this manufacturer defect on the 2001. This is my second notice to you. Please advise of receipt of complaint and follow up.
