Sounds like maybe the nubs are worn out on it or maybe something is bent inside...

If is it partially open, the problem is the spings on the outside.  If yours don't have them, that is what is causing the problem.

Junk yard is the only place I know of to get them.  I have some I need to put in my Burb, I will take them to the store this weekend and see if there is something simular...
