Latches/locks/linkage problem #1

Slowly the door has been getting harder and harder to close. Then the door panel started popping off everytime you close the door and now the door wont close all the way. Was told Jimmys are well known for this problem with the door hinges. . .

Door Latch problem #2

The entire car is defective, though it does not state it is a lemon. I purchased it used. I have replaced many major parts that are not considered routine maintenance, such a driver's door hinges and bearings, hood release cable, steering arm (twice) hubs (twice) the wiring system is faulty. I have gone through 4 alternators in under 2 1/2 years.
