Yes, I had that problem last year and broke the funky plastic handle trying to open the hood. I had attempted all the adjustments as well.
I got tired of having to break out the tools every time I wanted to open the hood and purchased a four inch beefy bolt and two washers and nuts to go with it.
I fashioned a new handle with these and lubed the entire apparatus as much as possible. Works fine now.
Whether or not that's a solution depends on your perspective.
