   Mine did that. Was because it was fitted poorly. Take the bonnet off and put it back on again to align it properly.

   sound like you either have crashed or you need to adjust the bonnet
   pop the bonnet but dont lift it up and see how the catch lines up with the slam panel then if needed adjust it by undoing the 4 bolts (2 each side) at the windscreen end of the bonnet
