CABIN CREW NOTED L1 DOOR GUST LOCK WOULD NOT ENGAGE WHEN THE DOOR WAS OPENED UPON ARRIVAL AT DESTINATION.  MX TECH EVALUATED AND RE-ALIGNED THE NYLON BUSHING.  THE L-1 GUST LOCK OPERATED NORMALLY IAW AMM 52-10-00-06.  THE ACFT DEPARTED AND NO FURTHER DISCREPANCIES WERE NOTED.  PRIOR TO FLIGHT, ANOTHER DOOR ISSUE WAS ENCOUNTERED AND RMA 613 WAS CREATED AND IMPLEMENTED.  ON 8-30-13 THE L1 DOOR BUSHING WAS REPLACED AND NO FURTHER ISSUES WITH THE L1 DOOR FOLLOWED.
