Default 2014 XC60 front door won't close all the way

On my 2014 XC60, the front door on the passenger side closes and latches. However, the rear part of the door doesn't align with the body.

Although the door doesn't seem to leak, I can often hear sounds from the road, especially while driving on wet pavement.

How can I adjust the door to make it close more tightly?

The inside of the door jamb has a metal strike plate with loop. When the door shuts, it catches the loop. The position of the strike plate can be adjusted. If you loosen the screws, the strike plate can be moved up-down or left-right. There should be some hash marks on the strike plate as a guide to see how much you are moving it.
