Support for the hood is melted off. The little hardened foam "blob" that holds the hood to the skeleton

My blobs along the middle of the hood are disintegrated, ones at the back are still good.

When did you delete. I am wondering if heat from regens cause them to melt away. I have herd of people's windshield washer fluid lines cracking from heat over time also.

No just one of them are gone. I've had the truck for 12 months. Some of those regens I interrupted when I had to park and run in somewhere
