Ok so i was driving home from school, while hitting a right turn going around 40, my door suddenly opens and slams back in reeeal hard, all the latches and srings and what ever locks the door in are busted and now door wont close . also the seat belts locked and pushed me back into my seat.(never knew it can do that, and i dont mean where it retracts, i mean where the seat belt clips on)

Latches? you need no stinkin latches.bolt it shut and roll the window down, then all you need is a window net.

seriously though hit up a junkyard asap, did it bend the hinges? and/or that little stopper arm that helps hold the door open?or did it just eff up the latch mechanism?

If your door whipped open and slammed shut while you where driving I'm sure it was already ****ed anyway.
