Does it actually jiggle? Try a little rattle tape. (Felt tape)
Quick and easy

yes it does jiggle when closed. how and where do i apply the tape. and is that pretty much the only fix other than the dealership?

The door should fit snuggly and shouldn't jiggle. Try looking to see if the hinges are not quite tight or if there is any play in the latch hook.
