Patent abstract
A vehicle having a hood-grille assembly and a method of operating the hood-grille assembly may include actuating geared motors to release the hood-grille assembly, releasing a bolster from vehicle structure, if a transmission is in Park when an open-close request is received and the hood-grille assembly is closed. This may also include, after the geared motors release the hood-grille assembly, actuating power struts to pivot the hood-grille assembly to an open position. The automatic closing of the hood-grille assembly employs the geared motors and power struts to secure the bolster to the vehicle body.
