Just a dumb suggestion but did you try to push it up while closing it ? Check to see if something like a leaf or tree bud didn't get lodged in it to prevent it from closing.

Yep, I can see it allright but it's hard to tell what's causing it. Sometimes also the limits need to be reset. I guessing it won't pop up either?

You can manually adjust the rails inside to get it closed for the time being. This will require taking the glass off.

To do this you pull the two plastic slide pins toward you (The black plastic things on the inside rails)

This will expose the back two screws, there are two in the front already exposed (4 total)

You will need a torx 20 to remove the screws, once the screws are out the glass panel comes right off. Once it's off you can push the mounting arms all the way down and screw the glass back on.

This should take about 15 minutes and will seal it until the dealership can have a look.

For right now I would tape a peice of plastic over it to keep the rain out. Closing the shade will not help and it could get ruined from the rain.
