My hood don't open

Hello, how are you? My car's hood won't open! When I pull the internal lever, only one side of the hood locks releases, while the other remains stuck. Could someone help me?

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

@davifarias try and have a second person push down on the side where the hood does not open. That may free the stuck hood. You could also try and use a pair of vise grip pliers to pull the cable a little harder and further then the actual hood release does while someone pushes down on the hood. Once you do have it open, check the "bumper" for the hood. You may need to adjust it so your hood is being "pushed" up further then it does now, when you close it.

You could also see if something like this as well as the write up by user "boxpin" on here will work for you.
