my 90 did exactly the same thing. and yes, there is no adjustment, but there is a fix. a relatively easy one, and cheap, but iterative and slow.
and i got the fix from newell over 10 years ago.
since it has been rubbing and catching when hot, there is going to be scuffing or paint removed from the edge of the door itself where it catches.
for the next step you have to be very careful, slow and careful.....
you take a good flat metal file and gently file ever so slightly on the edge of the door where it is catching. not enough to make a dip or anything noticeable on the door.
then you use touchup paint (i had matching paint) and cover where you have filed and there is bare metal that has been scuffed off and files.
then you wait until the sun causes it to catch again, and you get the door open (waiting until you can get it open without damaging it), and see where the paint is scuffed or scraped off again.
and repeat the process until it doesnt catch.
as long as the door hinge isnt sprung, doing this a few times will get is so you have a slightly larger gap that wont expand up to the point where it catches again.
once done, use matching touchup paint on the edge and you are done.
like someone said, if you cant get the door open because it is expanded too much and you need to get in or out then, a glass of cold water on the edge of the door shrinks it up immediately.
my two cents worth and i am sticking to it
