I've noticed it around michigan and it's happen to my car anybody notice the creased fender because of the door bending it in? I have pics but idk if I can upload from my phone. I wanna replace the fender but I'm wondering if its because the door or fender is off liniment or if this is just a common problem on these 00-05 gens

 

It's a door hinge problem.. one of your door hinges is bad..

 

Just like Zjerry said its your hinge. My 02 is having the same problem i purchased some new hinges now i have to get a new fender.

 

It could also be a rust issue at the bottom of the fender at the door. There's alot of dirt,sand,salt,and rocks building up in this area and even if you wash it out with a hose,like I do,its rusts out and the doors rubs. It does it on both sides.

 

I have the same problem on a 7th gen, I will get the door hinges looked at

Thanks again, that is why I like this forum

 

Yeah it is the door hinges. I just had to replace mine on the drivers side. They used 4 door hinges on a two door hinges.
