Went to dealer for door problem
 
I went to the dealer today and told them that the front right door does not close properly, and needs to be slammed to be shut. The guy told me that these car is made so solid that the door can take a beating and also that the air seal is so tight that the door will not close without a good shut. If i open the window, it is better, but I cannot open a window everytime I shut the door. The dealer said everything is normal, and they did nothing. Should I just believe this and deal with it. I just don't feel good when I paid so much money for this and my door doesn't close properly, and this is suppose too be normal? I live in NYC, and the service center where I go is a crappy place. You have to go line up 6:30AM or you will never know when they will finish with the car. It took 2 hours just to get an oil change. Man next time, I am doing it myself.

If the driver-side door closes easily and the passenger-side door doesn't, then the "air seal" answer is BS. The "air seal" effect should be the same on both doors.

Another suggestion, check out other cars on the lot to see how those doors close.

ummmm
 
if the door closes fine with the window down, then its the seal.. if not, then it needs a repair.. pretty simple..
