Yes the switch is adjustable. Use a small pair of pliers and turn it holding the very end of the plunger. If that doesn't work use a thin peice of tin/metal/plastic or something and build up the contact patch on the door jamb.

These door ajar sensors are the cheapest crap GM ever put on a car. I had to have 3 replaced in one day because they were bad from the factory. At least we can buy them from Ecklers now:
