Have raised front of box. Didn’t help. Both gaskets are in good shape. Is there a vent hole in this box. Only hole I know is drain for defrost. Thank you.

Hello
Here are the common fixes for your issue. I know you have checked a few of these items already. 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.
1) Check to see if the refrigerator door gasket is sealing properly. If not, wash the entire door 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 door gasket with paraffin wax (not candle wax). All refrigerator door gaskets are designed to rub the face of the refrigerator as they close. Keeping the gaskets clean and lubricated prevents them from dragging and restricting door closure.
2) Place heavier items in the freezer door compartments to provide some ballast (weight), since this is the smaller door and is more likely to pop open.
3) Make sure there is nothing in the freezer or refrigerator that is preventing a door from closing tightly.
4) Condensate drain unplugged .
5) Unit is properly leveled.
6) Door hinge cam assembly bent or damaged. See page #17 in manual link below.
