Sometimes it may take a moment for me to respond because I may have to look up information about your concern. I appreciate your patience and will provide responses as soon as possible. Justanswer is a professional service to give advice on auto repair and diagnostics. We are not a shop. the most likely cause is the hood alarm switch which is part of the hood latch assembly. While a relatively easy repair, the part is a dealer part and for it being a 2006, it will likely have to be ordered and take 1-2 days to get in, so it will likely not be a 1 day repair simply because the part is likely not kept is stock at the dealer parts department Thanks for using Just Answer and letting me help you. I hope I provided what you needed. If you find more help is still needed, let me know by listing out any remaining questions you have on this concern. I hope the remainder of your day is well.

Thank you for the info but I was looking into someone who can actually come to see my car and fix it. No problem. I will just bring it back to the dealer when their mechanic who knows about this will go there.
