Another worn/torn roof

Tillerman24 · 01-25-2012, 08:36 PM

2 days? Your lucky. My Roadster has been at the dealership since Christmas. They have put 2 tops on it, replaced all parts including the motor and rams. Went to pick it up today and found the window gasket ripped and the lower gasket hanging out which looks like crap. The service writer informed me that this car might get bought back by Nissan. Love the car but if the top doesn't work, I don't want it. Each top was $3100. covered by warranty but just so people have an idea. I had a really bad squeeking noise on the A post while driving also. don't know if thats fixed yet because I haven't driven it yet.

Man I guess I'm lucky. Inspected mine with a magnifying class. No issues so far.

Maybe we should start posting build date? Mine is 07/2010

Sounds like there are major issues with the entire assembly. Hope it works out for you soonest.

Wow some of the issues at crazy people are having. I will see in a few months how the install goes. The dealer did tell me the part have to be special ordered in and around 8 weeks plus, does that sound about right?

Here's one in the UK that this has happened too. Window catches upon opening (only the passenger side which is rarely used), car just over a year old, 6k on the clock (miles) and the door itself barely used. Booked into the dealers next week to investigate. I'm gunning for a new roof, and window needs realigning(?), as just can't see how a patch/stitching would survive long.

Thought mine was because of the window also but turned out it was rubbing when it was down
