door sticks when closing · door hard to latch
A door requires unusual force to open or close properly, or does not latch securely on the first attempt.
Check if the door visibly droops or misaligns with the body when open - this points to worn hinges rather than the latch itself.
Safe to drive once the door is confirmed properly latched. Do not drive with a door that does not latch securely.
