A garage door in East Grand Rapids works through deep cold, heavy snow, road salt and big spring temperature swings, often in an unheated garage. This is what we actually find here, and what we check on every visit.
Salt spray and slush ride in on every tire and sit on the lower cable runs and bottom brackets across East Grand Rapids. Cables fray from the bottom up all winter, and a frayed cable that lets go drops its side of the door and racks it in the tracks.
Drifted snow against a East Grand Rapids door adds real load and blocks the travel path, and ice packed in the lower track changes how rollers seat. A door that ran fine in fall starts scraping, binding and reversing once winter packs in around it.
Water in track anchors and frame joints freezes and expands through Kent County winters, shifting alignment a little each cycle. By March the signs are a corner gap, a scraping panel and an opener that reverses for no visible reason.
Insulated steel doors are the Midwest standard for good reason, and they are heavy - which makes correct spring rating and balance the whole game in East Grand Rapids. An under-sprung insulated door eats openers; a properly balanced one lifts with two fingers.

No. Stop cycling it: the motor can tear the bottom seal or bend the panel it is pulling on. Warm water along the seal frees most East Grand Rapids doors. If it then runs crooked or will not stay up, ice or a failed spring has done damage worth an inspection.
Most often a broken spring: the opener starts the lift, then cannot carry full weight past the balance point. In winter it can also be binding on ice in the track. Either way, quit running the opener - every cycle spends the motor on a door it cannot lift.
