I would say its probably just worn out but its been like this since I got the car almost 4 years ago.

but its progressively gotten worse so I'm guessing it was a problem that got even worse as time went by.
I just checked mine again and it takes quite a bit of effort to push the door out of the notches.

You may wish to purchase a couple new closers.

They shouldn't be that expensive. (ya right....).

They look to be easy to replace ....... after you get the door apart .....

OR, the one beer humfrz redneck fix: ...... twist the closer arm with a pair of channel locks to deform it. ........
