Default hood locks

the hood keeps popping open on the right side. the lock on that side doesn't hold it shut. i have lubed the mechanism and tried adjusting the spring screw on the hood and after a lot of tries all i did was managed to make it stuck meaning it would not release the right side. now i got it opened again and readjusted and still it will hold lightly but with a strong pull or driving around it will pop open again. is it damaged or is there any advise on adjusting it?

Last week, someone mentioned that the rubber bumper in the same corner is also an adjustment point.
