I would say definitely tighten the center rod. Its purpose is to take the
stress when the hood tries pulling up on the windshield top frame. Never
heard of this problem, though. Is your hood a good fit? Is it attached to
the top bow as I believe it should be on your model?

Runs great,
looks particularly bad since some SUV clown backed into it.
If you're near Mountain View, CA,
it's the red one with the silver bootlid.
