The motor is wearing out and your tracks need to be cleaned. Get some lubrication and clean the tracks out. get some shop napkin paper to clean it out. Make sure the spray has some teflon on it. DO NOT USE WD40!!! It is not a good long term lubricant.

Mine is starting to get stuck when going up. I have to push it up and it will work fine. It closes fine. Dirty also? you think?
