My hood won’t pop open.

What is your question?

I tried opening the hood of my Mazda but it won’t open. I need to plug in my car but the plug is in the hood and there’s no way for me to get around it. How do I fix this problem?

What makes this problem better or worse?

Pulling on the latch a couple of times doesn’t help me at all.

How long has your 2010 Mazda 3 had this problem?

Just today (hood problem) but car not running (a week).
