Doors are hard to shut. Have to slam them. Any ideas? The door hinges are well lubricated. I think something maybe out of alignment. Thanks.
I got replacement door striker plates at Partsgeek. Both front doors work fine. The bolts are of soft metal, so be careful when removing . Used 3/16" allen wrench. Extra bolts can be bought at Partsgeek .
Just to follow up: I had to use a Torx bit on a few of those bolts and then I had to use Century #2 Screw Extractor on one of them.

Lower a window and see if it makes a difference. Don't use WD40 - it's not a permanent lubricant.
