Only way to find out what is wrong is to take your door apart. Shouldn't be too hard.

it seems that your window has been misplaced. probably caused by opening it when it's kind of frozen. the motor for the window is pretty strong so eventhough it's frozen it'll still open it. the only way to fix it is to open the door panel and rearrange the window in the correct position. you can probably go to some autoshop for 50 bucks.

yeah, sounds like a mis-alignment of some sort. pick up a haynes manual for $20. there is a pretty detailed chapter on how power windows work and what to do to repair problems. i'm going to start doing more repairs myself cuz i'm sick of grease monkies doing a crappy job and scratching the hell out of my car.
