Is there a release to close the hood of a 1978 Cadillac opera coupe?

There is no hood release to close the hood. One of the hood struts may be frozen or damaged causing the problem. Disconnect one hood strut at a time to determine which one is bad. Your local auto parts store has replacement hood struts for that vehicle.


How do you know if your front shocks are gone on your 1995 Intrepid and how do you replace them?

It has Struts and not shocks. If the car is bouncing or floating whenever you hit a dip in the road, or seems to handle poorly, these are signs of worn struts. A leak in one of the struts is also a sign of a bad strut. Mileage is another factor. Struts today will last a long time, but if the car has over 100,000 miles, then more than likely the struts need replacing. As to replacing them, unless you have the proper tools and knowledge, take it to a pro. Serious injury can occur when replacing struts, if you don't know what you are doing.
