Door Pops When Opened!
I've had the KitchenAid KUDS30IXSS dishwasher for 6 months. Everything works great except the door pops every time I open the door. It appears the plastic piece on the bottom of the door catches the bottom of the dishwasher and pops back into place. Although the dishwasher is fully functional, it's an annoying problem. Any suggestions to fix the problem? Kelly
