Not too much advice here, but have you tried reclosing it? Like when one side stays up- reclose but push squarely down on the center. Then, with help, have someone release handle inside while you simultaneously pull up to the stops on both sides of hood?

My hood does this every once in a blue moon...when you unlatch the hood and normally pull the handle to open the hood ALSO put a hand on the right hand side (driver side) of the hood and pull up hard on that side as well as the center and it should open up..HOPEFULLY
