Also check your rearmost body mounts in the trunk. Up here in the salt belt, those mounting locations in the trunk floor pan would rust away and let the back half of the body sag. My Caribbean was an original Detroit car, meaning it spent its entire pre-collector life driving in winter salt. The rear body mounts are long gone and need to be replaced -- the door gap is now wider at the top versus the bottom of the door opening. The result is that the passenger's door sometimes wants to continue in its own direction instead of staying with the rest of the car.
