Product Details

Common Problems It Can Help Solve

  • Hood, hatch, or rear glass that drops instead of staying open
  • Weak or inconsistent lift assistance during opening and closing
  • Excessive effort needed to raise the supported panel
  • Uneven or worn gas strut performance on Ford Fiesta models
  • Loss of controlled movement caused by aging lift support pressure
