I have a problem with the rear doors on my w reg scudo a about a month ago the bottom of the rear doors kept popping open from the bottom but the top would stay in the catch thing. so i replaced the catch on the pass side rear door as it was worn and had rounded off and the doors stayed shut for a while now its happening again took it to the garage who are stumped. when he saw the van as i pulled up he pushed the doors and they clicked shut and the pulled on them and they did not budge he got inside the van and pushed and banged the doors and still not moving. he asked if anything is pushing up against the handle inside but there is nothing near it he said the only thing he can think of is the back end of the van is flexing say when i go over a bump or something that the bottom of the van is going down and the doors are going up so the catch is popping off that way. If anyone else has experienced this or knows what could be the possible cause/cure please let me know as dont want to be driving down the rd one day and see my generator, hoover and pressure washer in my wing mirror haha thanks Davey
 
My scudo is a 2001 on a 'Y'. I had the same problem, I just unscrewed the catch from the bottom, put a washer under each side then screwed it back down and as if by magic iit doesn't pop open now!
