Default Garage Door Maintenance

Oil everything and anything that moves, even motor bearings unless they
are sealed. Your problem is most likely the springs stretched and needs
adjusting. Test it, release the door from the opener at the door with
the saftey release, the door should go up and down by hand with equal
pressure. If it does not you need a pro to adjust the springs as this is
not safely DIY.
