Could be your latch too man. Try a little silicone spray on the stops.

try greasing the latch on the floor-make sure you hit the part that is closest to the back, not just the top. This worked for me, it was driving me nuts.

The 2 rubber stopper/guides on the sides of the opening are adjustable. That could be or solve the problem.
