is it actually latching shut? make sure the latch itself isnt stuck and dirty.

The latch apparently isn't fully engaging.
Try cleaning and adjust it for a tighter fit as necessary.

Do you feel resistance when pulling the release handle ?
I would try some WD-40 on the latch and cable, if that didn't work then I wouldn't take a chance driving it at high speeds or at all until you get another hood latch or know exactly whats causing it, Had a terrible experience with a hood opening up before.
