Bump...I just ran into this problem over the weekend.
Leading evidence: 'Run into this problem over the weekend' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Replace regulator' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.

An indy might charge about $500 to replace the regulator, but I don't think that's your problem.

Suggestion
If the window glass has actually become loose within the regulator mechanism, then you need to tighten the bolts that clamp the glass in place.

The second is to adjust it using the adjustment screw.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

my passenger side window seems to be out of alignment, or?? when opening or closing the door, the edge that laps the b-pillar, comes in contact with the edge of the rear side window. is there a controller for the window operation that can also cause this? i would like to know before the dealer takes the door apart.
Whats probably happened is the window has shifted in the lift mechanism. They'll probably have to removed the door panel to ensure that the window is snug in the lift mechanism (aka window regulator) and then adjust it to fit properly. Should be an easy fix.
no i haven't. i asked the local dealer's service rep for his opinion, and straight away without opening the door panel he says the window regulator, $700-800. huh!?!?
I just replaced my regulator yesterday, and so I've seen the adjustment mechanism first hand.
There are oval-shaped plastic plugs on the bottom of the door that give you access to the window regulator mechanism. There are two ways that you can adjust this. The first is the nut that connects the regulator mechanism to the bottom of the door. If this has become loose and allows the window regulator to move back and forth, then you can put it back into the proper position and tighten it. The second is to adjust it using the adjustment screw. There is one on each side of the regulator (two total - one front and one back). If the window glass has actually become loose within the regulator mechanism, then you need to tighten the bolts that clamp the glass in place. I'm not sure if you can reach this witout taking the door panel off.
An indy might charge about $500 to replace the regulator, but I don't think that's your problem.
Should just be an alignment as described above done with an hour of two of labor?
for the record:
I had to remove my door panel. I did not remove the sound deadening material as I planned on reusing it. I used an exacto knife and cut the material so I could look at the mechanism holding the window.
Well, it looks like the rear clamp that holds the glass was the culprit. There are two clamps holding the glass one in the front the other in the rear. The one in the rear must have loosened up allowing the glass to fall down in which the glass would hit the rear quarter.
I moved the glass back up after a few adjustments which looks like it was about 1/4, tightened up the bolt and walla......closed perfectly.
