 My driver's door will not hold open even on a level surface. Does anyone have any experience with this?
There is a lever between the door and jamb partway between the hinges but I think that is a stop to keep door from opening too far. Is there  something on the upper or lower hinge that holds the door in halfway or full open position. Is it visible or inside the door. Is it a big job to repair? Any info appreciated.
