Door fitment problem, need advice!!!

I have recently found out that the passenger's door have a slightly bigger gap than the driver's door. ( please see the pictures )

I found out when doing a car washing, a few drops of water leak inside, not serious. Also, when driving on highway, the wind sound on the passenger side is more obvious than the driver one.

Don't really know what is the problem, need some advice. Like how's it's gonna be repaired and how much would it cost ( estimate )?

Thanks everyone in advance.

Hinge alignment. Shouldn't cost too much.

Just out of curiousity, did you buy this vehicle new, or resale?

It's a used one, from a trusted person......no collision before, on Carfax report

if it is just the hinge alignment, I would be so relieved. because my friend's shop can help me to fix it for free.

Anyway, thanks a lot.

Better be a trusted person. Carfax is only good if cars actually obtain repairs through insurance.

yeah, that's worry me a bit too, but I do trust him......

since it is not that serious, I am thinking to leave it behind and get it fix when I have spare money.

thanks for your help all along.
