doors  are hard to close. 


John,
 
How large were the adults?  Your car may be fine.  If I remember  correctly 
the max load is about 900 lbs.  And the doors act as stiffening  wedges 
when closed with the jam plate and wedge on the striker side.  The  convertible 
may have simply been overloaded and not weak.
