The automatic closing rear cargo door latch on
dad's 2004 won't hold the door shut; it comes open

replace the latch with a second hand unit from a junk yard and see if it works, also check the alignment of the exisiting latch also my advise to you is to take your automobile to your local shop and a qualified technician should be able to diagnose the malfunctioning cargo door latch
