Kitchen Drawers Will Not Stay Closed

I have a 2021 Alante 29F and currently on a few week trip. It appears that I have 2 kitchen drawers that will not stay closed. I looked at the rails and don't really see anything to adjust (Picture Attached).

Any ideas what I can do to keep them from flying open all the time?

Our TT has a catch under the drawer attached to the center of the drawer face. The opposing half of it is attached the drawer stile. Not easily seen, but can be felt.

They look like this:

My Class C Redhawk had those on the drawers. This Alante has them on the cabinets, but nothing on the drawers.

I pulled the drawers out and it looks like there might be a catch at the end of the rails. I tried to adjust these, but it doesn't seem to lock any better. I will find out on my drive tomorrow I guess.

Check the line up of the catch that JFlightRisk highlighted. Our bottom drawer had 2 and only one of the was fully engaging.

Installed an extra latch to keep a drawer from opening while driving.

We have way overloaded a drawer (heavy pots and pans)in our 34G and it would occasionally open when we were driving. I ordered a pack of 5 of these on eBay for $10 and put an extra one on the troubled drawer. Easy to install and it holds. The one in the picture is an exact match of the factory latch mine came with. We don’t notice the slight extra force necessary to open the drawer.
