I have also had this problem. To originally open the hood after this problem i used a long and skinny screwdriver to push the metal part in the hood latch mechanism so that i didn't break it. After all of this i found that the only solution was to close the hood gently because the latch part was getting stuck in the plastic cowl. And i can assume we all prob got into this habbit of slamming hoods from earlier model Volvos. I hope that could possibly help.

Too many Volvos to list.
