driver side doesnt close all the way?
 
i just noticed that, when i close my door, it doesnt close all the way, i can still push it hard and it still moves, when i open then SLAM it close, it still happens. its not like when u close it half way and it moves a lot, its like 90% closed, but u can still push it in.

hmmm. Im sure somebody will post something more helpful but I would take it to a trusted body shop and have them look at it. Usually its something with the hinge ie: something stuck (spray with lubricant) or an adjustment needs to be made where the catch engages.

Some vehicles get door lag. Happened with my truck, I took a jack and jacked up the bottom of the door farthest from the hinge (using a piece of wood to protect the metal) and would let it back down check the door and did this till the door closed oh so perfectly.
