Todd,

This was recently addressed on The List, but I won't condemn you to that
particular form of Hell known as the archive search.

The fasteners for the central lock, which you called the rear latch, may be
loose.  The fasteners are countersunk No. 3 Philips which can be tightened
with the door in place if a right angle driver is used.  If the central lock
is secure, the position of the striker pin which the central lock engages may
have shifted.  This can be seen by from its outline in the paint.  It is best
to return the striker pin to its original position and tighten it before any
adjustments are made.  Remember when adjusting these things, a little
movement makes a big difference.
