In a 2017 Ford Explorer, the primary latch to open the hood is situated below the dashboard on the driver's side, near the brake pedal. To open it, simply pull the handle to release the latch. Afterward, go around the vehicle and use the hood handle located at the center of the hood. Pull it towards you to open the hood. Understanding how to reach your engine is crucial for monitoring and addressing any issues that may arise with your Explorer.
Please open the driver's side door and inspect the area along the dashboard close to the door hinges. You will find a lever for releasing the hood.
