Detailed Description
The Dorman 912-491 is a hood release cable replacement for select Ford Fusion vehicles. It is built to directly replace a worn, stretched, or broken factory cable and restore the connection between the interior release mechanism and the hood latch. The steel cable and formed end design support proper engagement at the latch, while the outer plastic jacket helps protect the cable during routing through the vehicle body.
Use this Dorman 912-491 hood release cable when servicing 2017-2018 Ford Fusion models with a left-side cable-to-latch setup or 2019-2020 Ford Fusion applications listed with N/A position. For buyers searching for a Ford Fusion hood release cable, hood latch cable, or OE-style replacement cable, this part provides a direct-match service solution.
What It Helps Fix
- Broken hood release cable that no longer pulls the latch
- Stretched cable with excessive slack at the release handle
- Sticking or inconsistent hood opening action
- Frayed or damaged cable strands
- Loss of connection between the release handle and hood latch
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify vehicle year, model, and cable routing before installation. Compare the original cable ends, length, and latch connection points to the Dorman 912-491 before removal. Transfer or reuse any vehicle-specific mounting points or trim components as required by the application, since latch and handle are not included.
Quality Assurance
