Locate the emergency hood release cable: it is usually found near the driver side headlight.
Using a flashlight or droplight, look for a rubber grommet or cap in the wheel well near the headlight assembly.
Pull on the grommet or cap to reveal the emergency hood release cable.
Pull the cable firmly to release the hood latch. You may need to use pliers or a screwdriver to help you pull the cable.
Lift the hood to open it fully.
Once the hood is open, inspect the hood release mechanism for any damage or obstructions that may be preventing it from working properly.
If you're unable to open the hood, it's recommended to consult with a qualified mechanic or refer to your vehicle's owner's manual for specific instructions.
