Window regulator adjustment would be the correct way. You would have to remove the trim panel for this one. Loosen the regulator to glass clamps and move the glass foreward 1mm at a time until it does not hit. You can gage this by using the black line on the rear of the glass right at the glass clamp. I have found 1 mm is almost always enough. Make sure to retorque the clamp bolt to 16N. I would first check your dealer for any bulletins.
