I've never had issue getting in my engine bay before, but this car is telling me I'm a liter low on oil, which I think is total bull**** as I never drive it and last time I checked it, it was fine. Anyways, I'm popping the release lever in the cab and go to lift on the hood and it won't pop. The passenger side wants to come up a little bit but I have to reach in and grab the plastic tab, and even when pulling as hard as I can with pliers, it will absolutely not release the hood, so I can't get under there to check my oil level, or do any maintenance as it sits now.

Ok well nevermind...I went back out a few hours later to try some stuff I saw on YouTube and the hood popped open perfectly and apparently works fine now.

Could you elaborate on what you saw/used to fix the problem?
