I have a passenger door that randomly comes open when the car is off. I read there was a recall for 13 and 14 year cars. Will the recall fix this issue? It appears to be more of an issue after the car is washed.

This is the R14 recall. What you described happened to many, many Vipers. Some happened at highway speed.
Note: A dealership recently told an owner that the R14 kits were no longer available. I have not tried to confirm that.
I suggest that you contact your CJDR dealer ASAP.
