Detailed Product Overview

SKP part number SK912087 is a body control cable designed to restore hood access when the original cable stretches, binds, frays, or breaks. This hood release cable is made to match OE specifications so it installs in the intended routing path and delivers the proper pull needed to release the hood latch. It is a practical replacement for Jeep Grand Cherokee and Jeep Commander models where the factory cable no longer operates correctly.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Problems This Part Can Solve

• Broken hood release cable that prevents hood opening
• Stiff or binding hood latch release operation
• Frayed cable causing inconsistent latch release
• Loss of proper pull at the interior hood release handle
• Difficulty accessing the engine bay for service checks

Installation Notes and Tips

Route the cable along the original path and verify that the latch and release handle move freely before closing the hood. Confirm vehicle fitment by year and model before installation. For best results, inspect the hood latch assembly and release handle for wear while replacing the cable.
