    Wipe any dirt/goo off of the soft plastic/vinyl rim around the edge of the refrigerator door. Wipe the inside of the refrigerator where this soft plastic/vinyl rim contacts the door when it is closed. Push on the soft plastic/vinyl rim to make sure the magnets are still inside. The magnets are what keeps the door stuck to the refrigerator. The magnets are in long strips inside the vinyl edge around the door. Also if the vinyl has become hard and is not supple anymore it may not allow the magnet to hold the door flat to the refrigerator. May need to replace the vinyl strip which might be too complicated for you. If so you'll need a new refrigerator.
