The dishwasher will operate with the door shut, but it allows steam vapor to escape from the upper edge and condenses on the countertop and controls. The water leaks down the sides of the dishwasher. I have approximately a quarter inch of play on the right side of the dishwasher door and a little less on the left. Just wondering if there’s anyone out there that might have seen this before and what they did to correct the issue. I have changed the door gasket and door latch in an attempt to fix the problem, but no luck so far. I applied a carpenter’s clamp on the top of the door and that stopped the leaks. The door strike is not the problem, it looks just fine. Any ideas would be appreciated.

I will check the door tomorrow morning and see if I can see anything out of the ordinary. I know that there’s no visible signs of damage, but I levels and framing squares to check the door. Thanks for your input.

We did a full wash cycle with the dishwasher and absolutely no leaks. I have no idea what caused the leak problem but it appears to have gone away. I will continue to monitor the operation for a few days before reinstalling the dishwasher back in the cabinet. Hopefully, we’ll get a few more years out of it.
