Was at work, door was opened around lunch time to get a jacket, was cold out but nothing crazy and truck was NOT recently washed. End of shift I start the truck and cluster reads passenger door ajar? Reached over to pull it shut and door would not latch closed, Plastic latch /door mechanism was free moving by hand but still wouldn't latch closed, did not have access to an heat gun so proceeded to pour a little HOT water on latch...door now shuts but Im sure this problem will return. I also wanted to mention truck only has 2000 miles and door latch was still heavily coated with white lithium grease.
