Whatever, this is a serious issue and it needs addressing pronto.
It needs to be investigated- this could be an isolated incident and more than anything we need to be certain of what we're dealing with here. I must point out that a fairly rigid door may not behave well when coupled with a flexing airframe, but it still might be the best we've got, Nothing, even well-designed door seals, lasts forever-especially when humans are involved.
