Door latch adjustment

[Dbeas]

I have new vehicle. Have noticed all doors other than drivers close with ease. Low effort, solid engagement. Drivers door will latch halfway unless more effort (harder push/pull).

Is there an adjustment to make this door close with same effort as others?

I am in Scotland UK and took delivery of my Grenadier in May 2023. My door was noticeably tight as you describe but it did ease with time. I think that it is a production ‘feature’.

After taking delivery, I had to adjust my striker plate for the driver door to close properly.

Some suggestions...

Double check the rubber in the door aperture making sure it is correctly in place all the way round. Maybe give the rubber a push with the heel of your hand or a rubber hammer.

Try a small amount of lubricant on the latch on the B pillar.

Then have a close look at that latch making sure it is properly vertical (comparing it with the other latches.

Lastly you could loosen the screws on that B pillar latch and move it outwards a very very small amount.
