To fix a door latch hook, first, inspect the latch for any visible damage or misalignment. If it's misaligned, adjust the strike plate or the latch itself by loosening screws and repositioning them as needed. If the latch is damaged, replace it by removing the old latch and installing a new one, ensuring it fits securely. Finally, test the latch by closing the door to ensure it engages properly.
I don't know if this is the problem you are having, but if your trunk won't latch properly because the latch won't reach the U-shaped hook it latches onto, it may be that it is the hook rather than the latch that has moved. I had this problem with my car. The hook, which is connected to the car with two screws, had moved down over time so that the latch would no longer reach it. Even though the latch was working fine, the trunk wouldn't close because there was too much distance between the latch and the hook. I solved the problem on my car by simply loosening the screws on the hook, sliding the hook up and retightening the screws. .
