I previously encountered an issue with the door not closing properly, especially with the Chery Tiggo 8 model, where the door latch was sometimes too loose or misaligned. I adjusted it myself, which was quite convenient. First, prepare a suitable wrench or screwdriver, locate the screw securing the latch on the door frame, and loosen it slightly. Then, gently adjust the latch position, try closing the door to check for proper alignment, and retighten the screw. Be careful not to use excessive force to avoid scratching the paint or stripping the screw. Test the door opening and closing several times during adjustment to ensure smooth operation without any noise. If the latch movement is too limited, it might be restricted by the screw hole; you can use a small hammer for slight adjustments but be cautious. After adjustment, remember to periodically check if the screw has loosened to prevent the issue from recurring. The entire process is simple and cost-effective, taking about 10 minutes, but requires careful attention to ensure safety.
