How can you repair a car door that does not close or lock if it is aligned properly?

Answer

make sure that the latching mechanism is open and not closed.. thats the part that is shaped like a c where the door meets the striker(the nob that sticks out from the car) if its closed it would be like running into a closed door.. when open it should close around it correctly..if not you may need to replace the nob. Not expensive either.
