Items of clothing may be caught between the door and the door seal, preventing it from closing properly.
Faulty door latch
The door latch mechanism may have failed and may need replacing.
Dirty or damaged door seal
The rubber door seal may be dirty, worn or damaged, preventing the door from closing correctly.
Wiring fault
Wiring connected to the door latch or control module may be loose or damaged.
Safe Checks You Can Try

Clean the door seal
