another member had this issue on his car and he tried messing with the latch a little bit (exposed portion on the side of the door) to make it work and then ended up slamming it hard and it closed!

In all honesty I'd try unlocking the door with the key from the outside and try closing it again. If that doesn't work then go to the dealer.

My father had a similar issue with this 750 about 7 or 8 years ago. The car ended up being a lemon. The door would unlatch while driving and swing open if you were turning. The door wouldn't latch and had to be held shut while driving.

I recommend bringing it to the dealer or an indy. The dealer fixed it a few times hence the lemon.
