iv the same year....and had the same prob.
you need 2 people.
one to pull the release.......and one to open the hood.
before you do this make shure you have some greese!!!
wd40 the whole unit......
it looks like a spring on the hood it self....
and near the radiator is a hook on a lever....
they get rusty and stick...thas the reason it sticks.
put greese on the round plate under the spring..
place a good amount on the lever and all its moving parts.....
that will do the trick....
just do the same process about every 5 months and it wont stick again.
good luck
