Went to open the engine hatch and it will not open. I pushed down on the
glass. Locked and unlocked the release but nothing. There doesnt seem to be any tension while working the release. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
sometime the hatch open lever will come loose from the pin. try pushing the lever back in place and open it.
 
I had the same problem... the dealer I took it too broke the hatch release lever... So I made them replace it. They wanted $180 for 2 plastic pieces! I was like haha thats funny...

In the mean time, I had to use a pair of pliers to open the hatch..... HTH
 
Wife's NSX had the same problem. It was the release lever.
The lever would turn but not turn the release rod.
Lever was stripped on the inside. Bought a new one from Acura, 25.00, pulled the old one off and pushed the new one on, no big deal and works perfectly.

It's stripped inside the release lever. A new one will fix the problem.
