Default Odyssey 2018 EXL Tailgate Problem- Very Strange

Today i went to airport to drop the family and power tailgate opened from inside with no problem after removing the luggage closed the tailgate with power button however when i came in to drive the car and it beeped the sound and showed me tailgate open, i open the tailgate from behind but it is not going up so i manually opened it and found that from left side some creak or stuck sound is coming also tailgate was not staying open and i have to hold with one hand than i saw i have a bed sheet which came to the latch i.e. tailgate is not closing, i moved the bedsheet aside from latch and while closing the tailgate i hear the same creek sound or something broke sound from left side of tailgate. I manually closed the tailgate and drove back home. I tried to do google and youtube but could not find what was the reason for this. Never saw this issue. Any pointers will help.
