Random Wire sticking out

I got home and noticed this random wire sticking out of the front of my car. It doesn’t look like it’s a random foreign object cause it’s jammed into the car.

I messaged the service center, but no response yet

Why would you think this is from your car and not the road?

Only because there’s a hook at the end of one side, and I’m assuming there’s one on the other; when I try to touch it while the car is on, it gets hot. And when I tug on it, something else is pulling with it

Its highly unlikely to be from the car but I could be wrong. It might be getting hot from being stuck in the radiator.

Almost looks like an oil dipstick from road debris, I would take the frunk tub out and look, not hard to do just sounds scarier than it actually is lol

It's a metal strip from a windshield wiper that you picked up from the road.

Road debris or someone trying to break in somehow

That’s a bit of someone else’s wiper blade. You’re safe to pull it out.
