My convertible top is developing a rip in it where the window rubs up against it when I open the door. I guess I’m not giving the window enough time to go down the little bit that it does before I open the door. Where would you take to be fixed before it gets bigger? :bang:

Just don't pick at it

Patch it with duct tape and it will be good as new

This is a good solution, or just leave the top down all the time.

Exactly. It is covered under warranty and in no way should you be paying for a repair.

Update.... The dealer is replacing the top and adjusting the speed of the window when you open the door next week.
