700 miles on my new JLUR and rear window tabs come unhooked after 2 miles at highway speeds. Lowering and refastening top made no difference.

Maybe someone on this thread can help me. I had a perfectly working softop with little noise issues. I made a bone headed mistake and tried to pull into the garage with it in sunrider mode and bent some of the frame.

They replaced the two big hinges on the back and the first 1 rib. However now when i close it there is a gap and i have to manually apply pressure on the front bar to get it to latch.

Is there anyway to adjust it? After having the top up for 3-4 days its back to normal no pressure needed but as soon as i do sunrider or top down for a day its back to having to apply pressure.

Also since the replacement i feel like i am hearing more outside noise then before. Its hard to gauge though cause i ran 95% top down.

Two words: warranty repair

That is not a normal Jeep thing... your top is defective.

Can you post a picture of your 4 Door or others that don't look like this? I honestly haven't paid that much attention to this. I have an appointment Friday to go to the Dealership and get some things done and will take a look at the other Jeeps on the lot too.

I don't have a 4 door, but my 2 door is nice and tight - looks exactly like @FrankieFJL 's picture.
