[Healeys] Door closure problem

[Roland Wilhelmy]

A sudden failing suggests misadjustment rather than wear.  I'd try
adjusting the striker plate until the door latches fully, then adjusting
until the door alignment matches what it used to be.  You should be able to
get both unless something is keeping the door from closing fully.
