Auto Spare Parts Right Rearview Mirror Light OE 31217838 Turn Signal Light for Volvo
The Hood Latch Assembly (OE Number: 31218878) is a critical safety and structural component exclusively engineered for Volvo V60 (2011–2014) and V60 Cross Country (2016–2018) models. Mounted at the front of the vehicle’s radiator support (directly below the hood), it serves as the primary mechanism to secure the hood in a closed position—preventing accidental opening while driving (a major safety hazard) and ensuring proper alignment with the front grille and fenders. As an OE-grade part, it matches Volvo’s original design specifications for durability, locking precision, and fit, maintaining the vehicle’s factory safety standards and structural integrity.
This assembly features a dual-lock, corrosion-resistant construction tailored to the V60’s front-end architecture:
Core Components:
Primary Latch: A heavy-duty steel hook that engages with the hood’s striker pin (mounted on the underside of the hood) to hold the hood closed during normal driving. It includes a spring-loaded mechanism for smooth engagement/disengagement when the interior hood release lever is pulled.
Secondary Safety Catch: A redundant steel latch that acts as a "fail-safe"—even if the primary latch loosens, the secondary catch keeps the hood from fully opening (it will only open slightly, alerting the driver to a fault).
Release Cable Interface: A precision-machined connector that links to the vehicle’s interior hood release cable. It ensures consistent tension and responsiveness, so the latch releases smoothly when the interior lever is activated (no "sticking" or partial release).
Housing & Mounts: A reinforced steel housing that protects internal components from road debris, water, and impact. Pre-drilled mounting holes align exactly with the V60’s radiator support, ensuring a secure fit that won’t shift over time (misalignment can cause hood rattling or difficulty closing).
Corrosion Protection: All steel components undergo electrophoretic coating (a rust-resistant treatment) and are finished with a durable powder coat—critical for withstanding road salt, rain, and humidity (common causes of latch failure in older vehicles).
Core Functions
Secure the Hood During Operation: The dual-lock design (primary latch + secondary catch) prevents the hood from opening unexpectedly at high speeds, which could block the driver’s view, damage the windshield, or cause debris to enter the engine bay.
Enable Safe Hood Access: Works with the interior release lever and (on some variants) a secondary front-release handle to allow controlled, step-by-step opening of the hood—ensuring the driver can safely access the engine bay for maintenance (e.g., checking fluids, replacing filters).
Maintain Front-End Alignment: The precision-machined housing and mounts keep the hood aligned with the front grille, fenders, and headlights—preventing gaps that can increase wind noise, reduce aerodynamics, or allow water/debris to enter the engine bay.
Withstand Harsh Conditions: The corrosion-resistant materials and sealed housing protect the latch from road salt, water, and dirt, ensuring reliable operation in all climates (no rust-induced sticking or failure).

*For 100% fitment accuracy:
Confirm the vehicle’s exact model year and trim (e.g., V60 T5 vs. V60 Cross Country) via VIN—while the latch is compatible with the listed years, minor variations in radiator support mounting points exist between standard V60 and Cross Country variants, and this OE part is calibrated for exact alignment.
Reference the V60’s official service manual to verify installation steps (e.g., disconnecting the release cable, removing mounting bolts) — avoid forcing the cable or latch, as this can damage the cable’s inner strands or the latch’s spring mechanism.
After installation, test the dual-lock function: Close the hood fully, pull the interior release lever (the hood should pop up slightly, held by the secondary catch), then release the secondary catch (via the front handle, if equipped) to open the hood. Ensure the hood closes securely without rattling—this confirms proper latch engagement.
Lubricate the latch’s moving parts (e.g., primary hook, secondary catch) with a lithium-based grease after installation—this reduces friction and extends the assembly’s service life.*
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How to determine if the bumper bracket needs replacement?
