Replacement Hood Lock Catch for Ford Focus C-Max MK2 2003-2012
Restate secure bonnet operation with this direct-fit replacement hood lock catch engineered specifically for Ford Focus MK2, C-Max, and Kuga models. When the original release mechanism wears out or the striker plate loses tension, a compromised latch can prevent proper closure or fail to remain locked during highway driving. This precision-manufactured lock catch restores factory-grade engagement without complex bracket modifications, mounting directly to your existing hardpoints using standard fasteners.
Built as a complete mechanical assembly rather than a simple exterior cover, it features a reinforced internal pawl and durable polymer components that resist daily temperature shifts and road vibration. The design ensures your bonnet remains tightly secured for safety during travel while maintaining instant, reliable manual release when service access is required.
Benefits & Practical Tips
- Maintain Striker Clearance: Wipe the bonnet striker pin clean before fitting to guarantee smooth latch cycling and prevent uneven wear on the new mechanism.
- Direct Bolt-On Compatibility: Mirrors original mounting hole patterns and structural angles, allowing straightforward removal of worn units and quick installation.
- Vibration Reduction: Optimized internal spring tension minimizes rattling and decreases the likelihood of accidental unlatching caused by extended motorway exposure.

Important Reminders
Verify bonnet striker clearance before final tightening to ensure the latching lever travels freely. Always test three consecutive close-and-release cycles under gentle pressure before regular use, and inspect the release cable linkage if any stiffness is noticed during operation.
