My driver's side door has began not to catch when closed what is happening?

What is your question?

Last night was the second time it occurred in as many days. Luckily both times I was in my garage but this time I made a service call and had to pay for it to be closed. It closes like something is lodged in the door and turning the cylinder does not help. After waiting overnight an the repairman came he just reconnected the battery cables open the door and it closed. Please advice.
