Driver front door needs adjusting H2
#2
During a storm with extremely strong wind my brother opened the door and the wind blasted it open. This caused the door to not only be aligned wrong but it wouldn't even shut. You have to open the door and loosen the bolts on the hinges, put the door into the correct position, then tighten them back up.

It also depends on where it needs adjusting. If the overall position of the door is off then adjust the hinges first to get that set. The hinges also adjust the front edge in/out. If at the back edge it sticks out some, in too far, or "hits" the strike meaning it moves up or down any when latching then you can loosen and adjust the strike. The attached document is for adjusting both.

grab the bottom outer edge of the door and lift it. if you feel it has play or moves up and down then your hinge pins and bushes need replacing. the dealer only sells half hinges, that is the upper and lower. so 2 separate part numbers to assemble 1 whole hinge.
