How do you open the hood of a Toyota Camry from 2018?

I’ve been trying to teach myself basic car maintenance so that I can save money on things like oil changes. But none of the tutorials I’ve found online tell you how to pop the hood, and I can’t figure it out. How do you open the hood on a 2018 Toyota Camry?

It’s great that you’re learning about car maintenance—it’s definitely a good way to save money! Here’s how to open the hood of a 2018
Toyota Camry
:
  • First, pull the release lever. This lever is located on the left side of the steering wheel near the floor.
  • Next, move to the front center of your car and reach into the crack between the hood and the frame.
  • Pull the lever to release the hood, then push the hood upward. Once open, the hood should stay open automatically until you push down on the top to close it again.
