Okay, its tory time:

Last week, I replaced both hood shocks as they were getting a little tired. Last night, the woman and I went grocery shopping and (pay attention here) released the electric rear hatch. Puzzled, the hatch didn't budge. So I just dismissed it, opening with a key and thinking it was time to adjust those damn pins again.......

Fast forward to this morning's commute. Driving along the freeway at speed when I notice the front hood wobbling!!!!!! F#@k!!! It looks like its going to fly open any second. Of course, this happens only when there is a train of cars right behind you and with no shoulder to pull off on for several miles. Then it comes back to me: last night I pulled the HOOD RELEASE. Smooth.
Luckily, because the hood shocks were so new and tight, it stayed put until making it to the first stop. I highly doubt that any of you will make this mistake (ahem) but be sure not to slide when it comes time to replace those hood shocks.
