Chrysler 2004 Concorde - Manual (Page 64)

TO OPEN AND CLOSE THE HOOD
To open the hood, two latches must be released. First pull
up on the hood release lever located under the instru-
ment panel.
Then lift up on the catch located under the front edge of
the hood, near the center.
To prevent possible damage, do not slam the hood to
close it. Use a firm downward push at the center frone
edge of the hood to ensure that both latches engage.
Never drive your vehicle unless the hood is fully closed,
with both latches engaged.
