easy fix!!!!!!!
1 open your door.
2 roll the window down.
3 brace the lower door with your knee.
4 pull the upper door frame pulling it towards your chest with your hands.
and your done! works for ANY vehicle with top door frame! i had to do it with my truck several times!
its a common problem with any car if it leaks uptop.
but since your paint is scratched ya someone tried to get in most likely, but same thing they just bent the door frame out alittle. just put your back into it and pull that sucker in. dont worry i dont think your strong enough to rip the door frame off.LOL takes some muscle to lightly bend that sucker back in.
my dad taught me how to do that!
and i thought i needed new seals or a new door for my old truck. he did that in 30seconds.LOL i was impressed... just one of those things ya dont think about doing till someone does it and it works and your like DAM i coulda done that weeks ago.LOL
now get out and do it right now
dont worry about over bending it. if you bend it to tight worst case... youll have to close the door alittle harder and it will naturally bend the top back enough after a few open and closes......
