I am dealing with the same thing myself. Here's what I have found out:
As Kia Spectras get older, the windows often start to have problems. When you're looking at a window that is "off track" and rolls up crooked, most likely what you're looking at is a bad window regulator. The price for getting this fixed varies based on whether you're talking about manual or automatic windows. My Spectra had automatic windows, so those are the only kind I can speak to.
Having this replaced at the dealership costs around $350-450. If you or a mechanic you trust is up for it, the part itself (usually sold in conjunction with a window motor) is in the $200-225 range. Used ones are available (often with short term guarantees) from junkyards or even eBay in the $100 range, though I have seen some as low as $79.
Good luck.
