Same thing happened to me, about 40mph. I had a thule ski/bike rack w/ a wind deflector on the car too. The hood flew up and pushed the rack, denting the roof as well as smashshing the windshield. Cost me like a grand to get it fixed when all was said and done..
Someone should look into this, I don't remember seeing a recall for a safety latch...maybe there is a defect in them...
