How do you open the hood on a Mazda MX3 if release is not working?

1. Locate the hood release lever. It is usually located under the dashboard, near the driver's seat.

2. Pull the hood release lever. This should release the hood latch and allow you to open the hood.

3. If the hood release lever does not work, you may need to use a screwdriver or other tool to release the hood latch.

4. Be careful not to damage the hood or the hood latch while trying to open it.

Here are some additional tips for opening the hood of a Mazda MX3:

-If the hood is frozen shut, you can try pouring warm water over it to melt the ice.

-If the hood is rusty or corroded, you can try lubricating the hood latch with a penetrating oil.

-If you still can't open the hood, you may need to take your car to a mechanic.
