The telescoping stays on the sides of the bonnet?
Every now and then I have one that won’t latch and it takes a couple of tries to get it to catch.
I’ve seen some where the latch tooth inside was worn and finally gave up.

That’s probably what’s happening. Usually I just try a couple times and it will finally latch.
