Default Explorer Help

I know this is kinda a weird topic, considering i dont have a ford, so im asking for your help, my friend has an Explorer, and the hood latch will no longer open the hood, does anyone know what the problem could be, i think its a wire somewhere that isn't poping it up.

Another thing is, he has a problem w/ accelerating, he says the car hesitates when he pushes the gas, what do you guys think that could be?

Thanks in advance,
Gus

The hood sounds like the cable may be broken. The other stuff I dunno. My O2 sensors went out in my old Ranger and it drove like shit for ever.

Hesitaion could also be the coil packs going bad. I have a friend and his hesitated when under hard acceleration. Turned out to be a bad coil pack.
