Hello Felice - Thank you for reaching out to us regrading your refrigerator. We are sorry to hear that the fresh food door opens on it own and we are glad to assist. It is not unusual on a two-door refrigerator for one door to pop open when the other door is being closed. The refrigerator and freezer sections are connected by air channels to allow air to pass between them. Slamming a door shut forces air from one cavity into the other, often pushing the second door open. If the door stays open, check the leveling legs. The front of the refrigerator should be slightly higher than the back, to allow the door to close normally. When properly adjusted, the door will close smoothly and firmly on its own. Check to see if the refrigerator door gasket is sealing properly. If not, wash the entire gasket with baking soda and water (1 part baking soda to 3 parts water), especially on the hinge side. Then lubricate the hinge side of the gasket with paraffin wax (not candle wax). Make sure there is nothing in the refrigerator that is preventing a door from closing tightly. I hope this information is helpful. Thanks for checking! Olga
