There was never a drop of hydraulic fluid found by me or the dealership before I gave the car to the body shop. Of course they say the leak caused the top problem and they won't work on it anymore.

Sounds like a ripoff to me & they are bailing out. Hard to say what you can even do about it. It's you say they say. Have you seen the hydraulic fluid leaking since you got it back? Is the top working?

I haven't operated the top since return.
I haven't/never have seen any hydraulic leaks on the vehicle.
