Default Latch Problems

Hello,

I'm having problems keeping my Trailmanor closed completely shut on one particular side for the "front" half of the camper. It seems that when I go over any road bumps, it jostles the front/right side of the trailer enough that the latch and hooks aren't enough to keep it secured.

I've already replaced the main latch. I wonder if part of the problem is the tension on the two struts - it seems like their natural position is pulling "up" a bit too much, so when any bumps happen the bump plus that pressure up is enough to loosen from the latch/hooks.

Anybody have experience with how to diagnose and fix this?
