Hood is crooked

[Macklessdaddy 10+ year member]

I was in a accident a little over a year ago and had the hood on my 04 sonata replaced,fast forward to 2 nights ago and I noticed the hood does not sit right(flush)with the front side of the car.

Question is did the dealer not do the job right (i'm sure of, my stupidass just took a year to notice it)or did the hinges get misaligned (if that can happen)more importantly what's the odds of the dealer doing something for a year old problem?

If the hood is aligned with the rest of the car but it is just sagging, you can adjust the stoppers that the hood rests on when its shut. I can do it by hand on my Xterra...

I am sure there is a way to adjust it, but why did it take a year to notice, lol!
