It sounds like the part that has failed is part of the fridge case. The only way to fix that would be to put a thin piece of metal over the top of it and fix it with pop rivets. Then fit the hinge to it.
Check to see if there are nylon washers between the bottom hinge pin and door. Some have on both top and bottom. If missing, you should be able to find replacements and Ace Hardware or similar hardware store. Measure the diameter of the pin or take one with to make sure you get an accurate fit. Should fit loose enough to spin freely on shaft.
The door comes off a set of hinges. You may have to remove the front fascia at the top, and access the screws holding the top hinge on to the frame. Unscrew these and remove the door by lifting off the bottom hinge. With the door off you will be able to remove the screws holding the bottom hinge. If you are lucky, they will reverse fit to the other side as they are. If not, use what was the top hinge as the new bottom hinge, fit the door and use the bottom hinge as the new top hinge.
Remove the door by unscrewing the top hinge and lifting off. Remove bottom hinge. Using what was top hinge, fit to bottom of opposite side. Fit door on with "top" hinge and secure.
You need to remove the wire clamp that holds the door seal on to the front of the cabinet, then pull seal off.
This will give you access to the door hinge assy, then you can replace the door complete.

More than likely, all you need to do is replace the door hinge., you will probably have to seperate the inner door panel from the outer panel to fit new hinge.
