Mine did the same thing. It looks to me like the cable that holds the door up when open gets twisted around when the door is closed thereby putting pressure on the side of the door. Every time that I close the door I have to make sure to turn the cable around.

Can't find it anywhere. The door is warped badly looks like one side melted, don't know what happened there just the door is damaged, weird. I may have to fabricate the door otherwise.
Thanks

Can't find a replacement door. One NOS suppler actually knew what I was talking about but didn't have it. I was going to use my heat gun to bring it back into shape or fab a new one, but the A/C isn't working, needs compressor, conversion kit, fan motor and who knows what. So after talking to my mech a neck he says after doing all those repairs I may still have problems later, so I'm lifting up the door and changing the A/C to a all new system.
