has anyone had an issue where the soft top wont open all the way? the drivers side rear wont release to be full down. seem like something in the track. i pulled the handle and made sure it was unlocked but still wont come down. Seems like something is stuck in track or wiring to track. also would this be covered under warranty?

It opens to sunrider fully, just not the rest of the way? Look carefully at the positioning of all of the components comparing the two sides. Bet you'll see where it's bound up.

There are cables involved, possible one is out of adjustment...yes warranty should cover you.

Try pushing down and up on the locking mechanism while you apply unlock pressure

Don't try to force anything it should break loose
