I noticed on my driver's side door when you shut it the top of it aligns with the body perfectly but the bottom half of the door sticks out a little bit as seen in this picture.

This doesn't happen on the passenger door at all and I had my girlfriends dad who works at a body shop check out the door and although he was too busy to tell me what to do to fix it he did say that visibly the car does not appear to have ever been in an accident.

So, I was wondering first off what could have caused this (the car came this way when I bought it from the last owner) and secondly is there any way to adjust the door and fix this?

NOTE: This is a 98 Jeep Cherokee 2 DOOR.

It looks like that the latch mechanism came out of adjustment. You need to loosen it on the door and adjust it until it closes right.

My 2 door does this kinda too, the hinges wear or tear away from the body. You can adjust the latch mechanism like ^ said or try to re-hang the door
