Emergency Door Not Aligned

The other day I had the rear emergency door open and gust of wind pushed it opened further and now it is harder to shut the door and the upper corner does not seal. Can I readjust the alignment of door? The top arm was twisted in the incident and removed it from the door and it is still hard to close. Any help is appreciated.

Pics?

I had the wheelchair door fly open at a stop sign the other day! I’m glad there wasn’t a pedestrian there! Most certainly someone had opened the latch while I was in the grocery store. I check every time now.

That would teach people not to touch things that don't belong to them huh?
