Well, well, well...it seems that the cold temps were too much for my hood release cable. I went to open the hood to refill my windshield washer fluid resevoir and when I pulled the hood latch...nothing happened. I thought maybe it was frozen, so I poured some hot water down the hood...still nothing.  Actually, I don't think the weather played a major deal in all this, it was probably defective and the really cold temps just helped the defect come to light.  Took it to the dealer earlier this afternoon and within 15 minutes...they came back to tell me that the cable had somehow snapped. Well...the tech said he is ordering one, so hopefully by Wed. or Thurs. my hood will be fixed.

I got to this discussion late. Can someone tell me what "limp home " means and why it has to be programmed? Thanks in advance.

The hood release failed twice on my Azera.The release handle is made of white metal and there is aball at the handle end. If the cable binds the ball pulls right through the handle as it did twice in my case.You can still open hood by pulling on the ball with pliers. Dealer claims he modified handle so we will wait and see what happens. I haven't tried to open hood recently as temp -35
