Check the guides and make sure they are clear of debris. Get a autograde grease and lube the guides.

Same problem here! Last summer this happened to me and I never could figure out how to fix it. The quick fix is to just keep playing with it until it lines up right. I stopped using my sun roof due to this.

This summer I went to the dealership and had the motor for the sun roof changed under warranty. After 5 years I opened the sun roof once and it never closed again it got stuck while open. I had to pull it back with my hands and push it up so it closed. Lots of dirt accumulates on the guides. If you are still under warranty take it so they can check if its the motor.
