shaky hood

so it seems that when i'm driving, i would say highway speed'ish, that the left side of my hood begins to shake. it looks like it would shake enough for the thing to come flying up at my window and that bothers me. but i've checked it several times, and it's tight up front. from my view on the driver's side and towards the middle, i can't see the pass. side of the hood doing it. but the driver's side jumps around and stuff, almost like it's super thin and the wind just throws it all over the place. it's enough that i can see it when the reflection from the sun, etc. starts to become distorted and it catches my attention. so it's annoying and bothersome as i wouldn't want it to fly up, or off. is this normal? or can i have the latch tightened or something? maybe that would help? suggestions are VERY welcome of course.

I have the same issue. I've checked it up and down and cant figure it out. The car was never in an accident before I bought it.

On the bright side it doesnt do it past 85 mph

i think i usually experience something similar to this. My car has never been in accident either - at least to my knowledge. So I gues its normal?

i will ask around the local shops and see what they think. i'll even call the dealer to see if they have anything 'knowledgable' to say (yeah right). i'll let y'all know what i hear.
