Did not notice it at delivery. Noticed it about a week ago. Bummer. It's dented right where you would place your hand to slam the thing shut. The dent does look like a thumb and part of the palm shoved right into the hood with no abrasion. Let's explore that a bit.
Since delivery literally hundreds of times I have watched dealer people open and close that hood to look, people stop and ask to look under the hood and I have opened and closed it quite often. It's not aligned in the center of the fenders and does take a good slam to get it to shut. I have had to close it again after a failed latching on occasion and others seem to close it on their own almost like a reflex action rather than asking. It's all innocent but...
The hood is aluminum. No magnetic attraction. Maybe it dents easily?
Firkins Chrysler/Ram in Bradenton, Fl. looked at it, listened to this story and said:
"Bring it in next Tuesday morning. We will give you a rental car, align the hood and fix the dent at NO CHARGE".
Two things to remember. Watch closing the hood. It may dent easily because it's aluminum. Then ask yourself, "Why didn't you buy at Firkins?"
