I thought that too so I checked and the door is completely square...it's almost as if the hinge just doesn't 'hold' the door closed. It doesn't open easily and there is the 'detent' when it is fully open but it just doesn't close like it should. It's killin' me!

Is the coating any thicker? maybe an obstruction near the hinge. Thats a weird one, post a few pics mayeb there is something we can see.
