hood lifting and shuttering

[bmiracle]

I have a 2018 and when I run 70+ mph the hood lifts and shutters quite noticeably especially if i am driving into a head wind. I have had the hood bolts checked and both times everyone said they were tight. Has anyone else had this issue? If so how did you fix it. I am thinking about putting on hood pins if nothing else for peace of mind. Thoughts?

It's been a while, but I think I remember my '18 doing that. Haven't noticed on my '22. Can you adjust the rubber stops at the front of the hood so that it seals tighter?

I can take a look and see. Its a Shelby so I know there is a ton of air coming under that hood. But it flexing pretty good and it gets almost scary thinking about that hood getting loose and smacking the windshield lol. I only had it a few months

Check the rubber bumper levels.

Try lubing the latch. Maybe it’s not closing fully.

It's the rubber bumpers

So I just got done adjusting the rubber bumpers and the passenger side was way low. I adjusted both up so both are sitting at about 1 1/2 inches. When i popped the hood before adjusting them, I had to lift the hood to reach the latch. Now it actually pops up so i can reach the latch. It feels much tighter when closed. I believe it will work and will test it on my commute to work. Ill will let all you know. Thanks to all for the help.

Fixed the issue. Just have to dial it in better to get the body lines right. Thanks again everyone
