Door ajar alert even though door is closed - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

My car says the passenger door is ajar even though the door is closed. I can still have the window go up and down when I use the button but it doesn't do that little automatic drop and raise when you open and close the door. Has anybody else had this problem and knows if it's an easy fix I can do myself or if I need to take it to the dealer? I have an appointment set already but the earliest my local dealer can get me in is in a week and a half and I don't really want to deal with the chime every time I drive it until then. Thanks ahead of time!

Stupid car your door is not a jar!! It's a door!! lol, Try a fuse pull, might be a simple indexing problem that some have had. Maybe someone who has done this will chime in. Good luck.

If you have a Scosche kit installed, others have reported a similar issue with electrical gremlins.
