Dont go over bumps.

3 things could be wrong (but mostly cheap to fix)
Problem #1 The weather stripping could be bad causing a loose fit around the opening.
Problem #2 The latch is worn out.
Problem #3 The striker is worn down, or has loosened up and moved.

I would check the striker first. If it appears to be okay, then move on to the other stuff.

being a 2002 most likely weather stripping. Not so cheap but easy to fix. Don't get the after market crap. it probably wont fit or stop your issue.
