Door won t shut?

sunfire drivers door latch won t work


Car door wont shut on a 1994 Ford T-bird- Only closes when the latch on side of door that holds onto metal bar on car frame is flipped up- any suggestions?

If the door will not close on a 1994 Ford Thunderbird unless the latch is flipped up, the latch is gummed up. Spray the latch with WD-40 or Liquid Wrench to free up the latch mechanism. A door that is out of alignment will also cause this type of problem. Check the hinge and inspect for cracks that might allow the door to droop.
