How do I adjust a patio door?

Have name brand patio sliding door with french crossbars. When door is open the bars do not match up. I have tried to adjust using the bottom screws on inside, but then door will not lock. Also, when looking at top of door in track, looks like handle side might fall out (inside). Is this a roller problem or bottom track uneven? Thank you for your help.
i have contacted the manufacturer and they are giving me the "run-around" because they no longer make patio doors .

Thank you for the prompt reply. Will be checking these suggestions out.
Thank you
Sorry Mary, but this is asking too much without seeing your doors. It could be the rollers are worn out, your framing has twisted in the rough opening, or it could be a combination of all of them. Even a good set of photographs may not reveal the problem if it's the rollers. By the sounds of it, you have nothing to lose. Why not send a close photograph of the top and bottom tracks , inside and out with the doors in the closed position. With a lot of luck, I may be able to help you.
OK Thank you
