Genuine Mercedes Hood Safety Catch Spring

The Genuine Mercedes Hood Safety Catch Spring (also called a hood catch spring or hood latch safety spring) is an original equipment Mercedes-Benz part. It works with the secondary hood safety catch. Over time, the spring can weaken or break. When that happens, the hood may not lift slightly when the primary release is pulled, and it may not stay controlled as it closes.

Key Features:

• Original equipment Mercedes-Benz part, sourced through the manufacturer's genuine parts channel
• Lifts the hood slightly when the hood release is pulled, so you can reach the safety catch release
• Helps keep the hood from slamming shut, which protects the hood latch from damage
• Replaces weak, worn or broken safety catch springs
• Built to Mercedes-Benz specifications for correct fit and dependable spring tension

Choosing a genuine Mercedes-Benz replacement restores the original hood latch operation. It is a simple repair that helps keep the hood mechanism working as the factory designed it. Select the child item for the specific part number that matches your application.
