sorry to ramble, but any thoughts?

It could be a worn out latch, but check the striker (piece on the body) and see if that's adjustable. I cant remember. Watch it as you close the door and see if it's lining up. Usually having to slam the door is worn out hinges. pick up and down on the door and see if you have play. If all that is ok you might just have to wait until the rubber gets broken in and it will probably get easier. Also the door guts add weight, and might make it sag some where you need to readjust it.
