On the trunk I wuld maybe check the hinges and see if they are rusty. On my 96 contour I had the same deal with the hood. It had not been hit but after the guys at the garage opened it the drivers side was sticking up about 1/2 inch over the fender. The hinge had rusted up prety bad and the part of the car that it was bolted to had bent out of shape when the hood was opened.
I pulled the hinge off and worked at it with some grease and a vice till it moved like new and threw it back on. I straightened the bent metal and the hood went back to normal.
