The door won’t close properly. I’ve already checked the latch and it is in an open position. But the door still won’t close. Sometimes it will close, sometimes it’s not.

Hello IRDINA BATRISYIA,

Sounds like the latch is faulty. Unfortunately, this is a Malaysian built vehicle, and I don't have much information. But I will try to help you the best I can.

Is the door able to be locked?

It looks like this issue should be covered under Proton's Basic Warranty.

60 months or 150,000km, whichever comes first. Since it is a 2023 and under the 150,000km limit, I suggest letting the dealer fix it in my opinion.

Here is a link to the warranty page I found:
https://www.proton.com/en/after-sales/our-warranty/

You can try spraying some white lithium grease in it. Then opening and closing the door, spray a little more, open and close the door a few times more and see if it gets better.

Thank you,
Brendon
