Dacia Logan Tailgate Latch Issue

I own a 2008 Dacia Logan with a Diesel engine and 180,000 km on the clock. I'm experiencing an issue where the tailgate does not open automatically. The latch on the tailgate seems to be malfunctioning; the lower part is not catching, and the hook is not engaging with the lock, preventing the boot from locking. Does anyone have any easy solutions or fixes for this problem?

Check if there is any debris or dirt obstructing the latch mechanism. Clean the latch and the hook area thoroughly and lubricate them with a suitable spray lubricant. This might help the latch engage properly. Let me know if this resolves the issue or if you need further assistance.

Tried tightening the bolts that has worked as well as lubrication

Inspect the alignment of the tailgate and the latch. Sometimes, misalignment can prevent the latch from engaging properly. Adjust the striker plate on the car body to ensure it lines up correctly with the latch. If the problem persists, it might be best to have a mechanic take a closer look. Let me know how it goes or if you have more questions!
