Default Sunroof closes crooked 91 hatchback

First post ever. My sunroof won't close completely. Motors and switches all seem fine it opens and closes but it won't close all the way because the passenger side of the glass gets to the front of the opening before the drivers side does. It also appears that the sunroof may be trying to pop up before it finishes moving forward. I don't know how these work but if I was guessing I would say it slipped a few teeth on a gear. I did a search but most of the sunroof threads seem to be related to CRXs. I have a 1991 SI hatchback with a factory sunroof.

Turns out one of the pieces that slides in the track, the metal piece with the plastic cover at the end, had fallen apart and the broken piece was in the track. Simply removing that debris solved the problem. I went to the junkyard and got a pair in great shape off another vehicle that used the same part, I think it was a Legend. Took the whole thing apart cleaned everything and put it back together it is like new.
