Window goes down too far

My passenger side power window goes down too far. I can't seem to find the stop for it. How can I adjust this? Its doing the thing where it goes down too far and falls toward the outer part of the door, then binds going back up.

The stop has broken off.It's probably in the bottom of the door.You need to fabricate a new one.You can use a bolt in place of it.

He is right. Take the door panel off, look at the bottom of the window, you will see where there is supposed to be a metal clip holding a rubber stop to the bottom of the window that hits the bottom of the door to stop it from going all the way down.

I did not find the stop, but I did find where it mounts and hits the bottom of the door. I cut a little square of rubber and attached it to the bottom of the door and all is good now.
