There is definitely a screw missing from that location. It's a small Torx head screw, and its function is to hold one end of the cable fixed at the base of the B-pillar, with the other end of the cable being anchored on the shoulder plate on that side.
That missing screw would cause the "opening getting larger and larger", so replacing the screw will fix it.
Here is a link that shows the particular screw (T20 torx) and gives you a cautionary warning about not stripping the aluminum (or magnesium?) threads that it goes into:

Look at the text in paragraph 6 in that DIY, and click on the photo to blow it up.
