Propane door

We’ve been on 2 trips with our Laredo and I had to stop 3 times to close the door where the propane tanks are stored. Has anyone else had this issue and is there an easy fix? The locks seem like they fit ok

Take a look at how the locks are mounted... mine were mounted so that any vibration would cause the bar to open..

My solution was to reset them so that the bar had to be moved UP to open... not DOWN..

Exactly what Javi said. The latch on our generator door had the same problem and I swapped the turn of the latch.

I had the exact same problem and I had to make new latches that were about 1/4" longer.
