They put a new top on it but when I got it back the top didn't open right. When you push the button it would lift about 5 inches and stop. If you let off the button and push it again it would go ahead and open all the way. Took it back... It has now been at the shop almost 2 weeks. They have replaced numerous parts, got a call from nissan dealer and the service man told me they don't know what the problem is, have called in a nissan rep. I just want my car back!!
This may not be related to the top tear issue that's been plaguing the Roadster. The window is supposed to drop slightly when the door handle is pulled, and if you pull the handle too quickly while pulling the door open, the window can not drop fast enough to clear the fabric, and it's gonna catch the fabric.

I remember back when I first got my Roadster, I would tell this to passengers so they would let the window drop before they actually pulled the door open.

If this is happening with your Roadster, then the new top will fray again. Make sure the window drop is working properly. The window should not be catching like it did.
