It looks like a bad chain.

the problem is with the geometry. There are overlaps where the radius meets the angled lines of the protrusion in the bottom right hand corner. If you clean them up and redraw the radius it works fine. I have attached the part file.

I like to use the Chain Select method to find these errors.
Just enter into selection mode.
Holding the Shift Key down click on an entity.
If the entire chain selects, de-select it and try another entity.
If there are any overlaps or gaps you should be able to find them using this method.
