I must admit I was surprised it happened. I had previously sprayed some WD 40 on the catch probably last year somewhen. I regularly checked oil, water and topped up screen wash it always opened and closed normally.
Its the little lever part you move with your finger under the bonnet that then allows the bonnet to open. Any stickyness (is that even a word?) with that needs to be addressed.
The main thing is, no bertrums were harmed
