Default Window is pissing me off, won't go up all the way!

Alright heres the deal, for no apparent reason my drivers side window will not go up all the way, my window motor is fine since its a new one but all a sudden it just started with this? It's about 1/4 inch off from the top it seems, so theres about 1/4 of a inch more space that it should go up yet but it doesn't and just stops. Has anyone had a issue like this happen before or know what the problem could be? It seems like something simple but I honestly don't know why it just started and what to do..

Look at the window regulator. Also make sure you don't have something stuck in the tracks, and that the tracks are where they are supposed to be.

My passenger side door use to that I had to open the door for it to go up all the way. Try that and see if it helps.

Mine was working fine, it would just stop as if it was told to stop there, I had to move my motor around since it seems it twisted from the window torque or something, and redo rivits so it wont move now for sure. Check if everything is lined up in there, it was a easy fix thank god.
