Passenger door

I noticed that when the car is parked on an incline facing upward. The passengers door keep slamming closed while the driver door can stay open inspite of incline. Anyone else have this issue? Can that be fixed as part of warranty? Thank you

Agreed...

Door stops are weakest I have had in an SUV ever. Was curious whether it was just my car, but issue is issue nevertheless. Anyone know if door hinges can be torqued down a bit? Doors are relatively light, this should not be occurring.

went to dealer yesterday, fixed a rattle issue and the technician agreed with me in regards to passenger door, unfortunately it cant be tweaked, dealer ordered new hinges, will call me to replace them when they arrive and painted.
