Your car must have been in a wreck. No Lexus does this off the showroom floor.
Take it to a body shop (or the dealer) and have the door adjusted properly. It should never partially close if someone older than four is closing it.

are you referring to how when you are getting out of the car you open the door, and before you can swing your leg out its closing on you? Mine does that too, so I have a lot of footprints on the speaker grill.

This is ck
This is classic wear symptoms of the middle door check, not the upper and lower hinges for each door.

Mine does this as well. I figure there is a detent on that rod that goes into the door that is worn out. And my back driver side door, is tight. I have to really give it a push to close it fully.
This should be the part here.
