Default Front door window

My front driver side door window just started doing somthing weird, it almost seems like it is rolling up to far then it creeks in the weatherstpip like it is too tight. Anyone ever experience this. If so what up?

The window operates in such a way as it goes up until pressure keeps it from going up further. There are no stops or switches to limit its travel. Is the squeak from the weatherstripping? Is the door sprung some?

If not, you may want to run just a little bit of silicone lube around the weatherstripping. Also, check its condition. It may not be a bad idea to take the door apart and lube up the window regulator. Most of the failures for the front windows have been them jamming up mechanically. Taking the motor out, lubing things up and putting it back together has solved most problems.
