Hood Latch

[ddingle]

My hood latch stopped working on my 2015 CX5. This has happened twice recently. The first time I stopped by a repair shop I use and when one tech was at the hood and another pulled the latch it opened. They cleaning and lubed the latch and adjusted the bumpers to put more pressure for the release. Now today it has happened again. Anyone have a similar problem and/or a solution? The inside lever seems fine,but the hood stays fully latched. Thanks

I just wedged a bottle cap to hold the latch release open in the car and I was able to open the hood. We did lube it last time so might need to be replaced. Thanks for any input. At least I was able to add much needed washer fluid.
