I personally don't see it being related and just a fluke

But again who knows what experience the tech had working on your car
Lol. That was a GTR tech replaced the radiator for me. I doubt about them is because the latches were working perfectly fine even the day I brought the car in for the work. Today is the first time I took out the car and tried to open the hood after I get it back from the dealership. But yes I will bring it back to the dealership on Monday and have them to fix it.

Aha, that's what I am thinking about it too. And thanks for the tips!
