My 2001 Plymouth Prowler hood fell on my left wrist without any warning causing a severe bruise that lasted several weeks. Initially I thought the wrist was broken but an x-ray showed it wasn't.

2001 Prowler hood shocks failure. . . Hood slams shut with no warning. 8jb.
The hood supports will not hold the hood up while I am working on the engine. The car is a 2000 Plymouth Prowler. Chrysler replaced the hood supports under warranty for the same problem. If you have you head under the hood, it slowly settles on your head. This a recurring problem. The date below was the last time I had the hood open.

Working in the engine compartment with the hood open. Hood strut rods release ( hold the hood open and then release suddenly) the hood without warning and the hood slams down on whatever is in the way. Hit in the head two different times causing contusions and abrasions to my head. Problem occurred with 200 miles on the car and dealership replaced the strut rods at 1300 miles. The new strut rods are starting to exhibit the same problem. (dealer kept the original hood struts. ).
Hood struts won't support hood,have been replaced by Chrysler once and car has 2000 miles since replacement and no good again. Warranty has expired and I see no use replacing again with what Chrysler sells. Car is 2000 Plymouth Prowler. I also think Chrysler should stand behind this item.

Hood shocks do not support hood weight. The hood crashes down and I need to put a support pole there to hold it up. Replacing the shocks does not help--it only happens again. Many other Prowler owners are experiencing the same thing.
