How to Open the Hood of the Envision?
2 Answers
The method to open the hood of the Envision is as follows: 1. First, pull the handle under the driver's compartment, and the hood will pop open slightly; 2. Go to the front of the hood, pull the hood upwards with one hand, and with the other hand reach into the gap in the center where there is a lever. Pull it firmly to the right to open the hood completely. The Envision is a mid-size SUV produced by SAIC-GM Buick. It offers a choice between a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine and a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine. The vehicle dimensions are 4686mm in length, 1839mm in width, and 1691mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2750mm.
I've been driving the Envision for several years, and opening the hood is actually quite simple. First, crouch down in the driver's cabin and locate a plastic lever near your left foot, usually positioned under the steering wheel or to the left of the seat. Gently pull it until you hear a 'click' sound, indicating the main hood latch is released. But don't think you're done yet—immediately step out of the car and go to the front. Reach under the grille to feel for a secondary small latch, which feels like a tiny button or handle. Simply push or lift it to fully open the hood. Remember to secure it with the support rod afterward to prevent it from falling and injuring your hand. This dual-latch design is for added safety, so beginners shouldn’t rush—checking the owner’s manual will provide clearer instructions. Keeping the engine bay clean also helps reduce malfunctions.
