Do you mean the glass doesn't latch onto the actual hatch?
Is everything aligned properly?

You might hatch to adjust the latches on the actual hatch part. My were loose and the same thing happened. Once I tightened them and readjusted them it worked good

how do you adjust the latches? or do you mean tighten the three bolts that hold the hatch together?

On each side there are hooks on the body that the lower part locks into. I had to use a 2x4 and a BFH to hit them towards the front of the car. I honestly don't know of another way to do it.
