Default Hatch Adjustment - Excessive Gap

2017 Model here ... and, I can't imagine Nissan let this out of the factory this way - yet, at the same time, there is nothing to indicate otherwise. All panels are factory & the car has had zero body damage.

The gap on my rear hatch is excessive. I've compared to others new-on-the-lot & took panel measurements based on the factory specs detailed in the service manual. The gap is good at the top & down the sides right about to the gas strut mounts ~ then, the gap gets out of spec all the way around to the other side. The weather-stripping does not even touch in this area either.

I've adjusted the latch per the service manual - I have it all the way down & that did help a little, but no cigar. Any ideas??
