I've been driving the Enclave for a while and would like to share some tips for closing the hood: First, make sure the support rod has been removed or put back in place to avoid jamming. Then, gently lower the hood until it's about 20 centimeters from the car, stop, and use the palms or fists of both hands to press down on the area slightly forward of the center of the hood. A crisp click sound indicates that the latch is securely engaged. Remember not to operate while the engine is running to avoid burns; it's safer to do this after turning off the engine. Once, I didn't press it properly, and the hood suddenly popped open while driving on the highway, nearly causing an accident, which highlights the importance of this small step for driving safety. After each closure, it's best to lightly pull the hood to check if it's secured, avoiding risks caused by negligence.
