You need to adjust the latch (rather, the hook it grabs onto on the bottom). Problem solved. I had the same issue when I removed my hook to clean the corrosion off of it. I didn't put it back exactly where it originally was, so it wouldn't shut correctly.

There rubber stops that screw in/out that adjust how far the hatch comes down. Its unusual but its a Honda thing.
