Detailed Description

This Dorman hood release cable is engineered as a replacement for a damaged or worn factory cable on 2018-2022 Ford EcoSport models. The cable construction combines a metal inner cable with a plastic outer material to support consistent hood release operation.

This part cross-references Ford OE numbers GN1Z16916B and GN1Z16916D for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

• Frayed or stretched cable causing weak or inconsistent pull
• Damaged handle end or latch-end connection
• Sticking hood release operation after cable wear
• Loss of normal hood access on a Ford EcoSport

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify vehicle fitment before installation by matching the model year and OE-style cable routing. Inspect the hood latch and release handle assembly for wear before installing the new cable, since a damaged latch can affect operation. Confirm the end styles and overall length match the original part on your Ford EcoSport.
