Well mine was doing the same thing and all my weather stripping was in place and looked great. I asked a buddy of mine about it who is in the auto body business and he said sure I'll take a look. I stop by the next day and he came out open the door looked at it, rolled down the window put his knee against the arm rest of the door and gave a couple good tugs on upper corner of the door and said there that should do it. Haven't had a problem since. And I can't tell he even did anything

i'd loosen lift and tighten. i don't like the look of some of the ford's either. i drive an 85. i dont drive a brand new truck. the only trucks i'd drive would be 7.3's and maybe try a 6.4 but this is off subject so lets get back to helping

Did someone change mirrors possibly and leave out the triangular piece of insulation that goes behind the mirror. Not sure if that would do it but worth checkin out.

I had door out of alignment too. It was a quick fix to a very annoying problem. I delt with it for quite a while but when snow start falling it, that was it.

Had my mechanic go over the truck today, he has been doing auto body since he was 16 and i can't tell you how old he is now (old enough to be my dad and I'm 20), but anyways, he spent about fifteen minutes looking at the door and noticed the front fender was not adjusted in far enough, i couldn't tell but he spotted it, then noticed the fender was aftermarket and same with the door, then he noticed, my whole entire passenger side of my truck had been repainted. Meaning it was wrecked. Now i was not able to tell any of this, it is amazing how good someone can get after doing something their entire life, but anyways, thursday hes gonna pull my door off, then adjust the fender in to where its supposed to be, then put my door back on and adjust it correctly and problem should be fixed, So that should answer your question prison, and proves this isn't a dodge problem.

well if others have had it it is. it shouldn't happen but it does. find out why it was wrecked and i'll find a reason to blame dodge just to mess with ya. i dont like any of the new trucks man. i dont just rag on dodge. i drive a ford because i like them the best but when i see there flaws i will point them out. 60 years ago it was about putting out a quality product. now its about the best looking product on the showroom and on paper.

I lined the edge of my doors with extra weather stripping but didn't get much help. I was thinking it was coming by the glass. Idk though.

I've got the same problem with both front doors. It usually only does it when there is a cross wind or I'm doing more than 75 mph.
