HHR SS Door Problems?

I just bought a 2008 HHR SS and it seems that all doors except for the driver's door need an inordinate amount of force to close all the way (even the back door). Anyone have this issue? Anything the dealership can do about it?

Thank you HHRCrafty! The doors always 'seem' to close properly but the light never goes off and Door is Ajar light is always on. It's irritating. Always telling your passengers The door isn't shut, Shut it again, Harder this time, No still not shut, Harder!

My doors close easy, the back door takes a bit more to get it to close properly, but otherwise they seem normal.

No such problem here either. The doors are quite light, like a mazda. My buddies MB c300 doors close hard, like a old caddy.

Probably just needs an adjustment on the latch/striker or the door needs to be adjusted. Happens all the time.

The car is real airtight.The hatch in the rear moves alot of air,and it has to go somewhere.Closing the hatch can be a pain if all the windows are closed,it requires a firm closing if the wondows are all up.
