Just curious. Can this problem be due to incorrect door alignment? Or is this just something that happens due to normal wear? Seems like a bad engineering job if normal wear.

Or you could weld the groove with a welder, then grind it back down to smooth again to fill the groove. The door is pretty heavy and the metal of the lower track is thick steel. Putting lighter sheet metal on top isn't going to hold up or work very well.
