Reply to comment by JerseyWiseguy in Garage door stops closing midway and reverses - sensors seem aligned by simon_on_trails
This would be my guess as well. There's adjustment possible where the little wheels in the track meet up with the door sections, if it's dragging against the frame too tightly. You want a reasonably tight fit for low airflow, especially if you've paid more for insulated door, but if you're just "scraping' it along the garage framing either side it might be sensing the added friction in some temperature and humidity conditions (depends what your framing is) and that's what's making it stop and reverse vs. fighting it.

Check the track alignment, keep an eye on the rollers and pins and see if they start pushing in at a certain point. If so, maybe loosen the bolts and adjust track to prevent the tightness.
