Consumer Description

THE SOFT CONVERTIBLE TOP ON MY CAR IS DRY ROTTED AND FALLING APART. IT IS A TAN TOP. I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST MINE, HOWEVER SINCE THIS, I HAVE NOTICED ALMOST EVERY SINGLE TAN TOP I HAVE SEEN, EVEN ON THE NEWER CARS, ARE THE SAME AS MINE AND ARE PEELING ALL ALONG THE EDGES. THEY ARE FALLING APART PERIOD. THERE ARE SO MANY THINGS THAT ARE OBVIOUSLY DEALER DEFECTS THAT SHOULD BE RECALLED IT IS PATHETIC. THE TRUNK SCREWS THAT ARE SUPPOSED TO HOLD THE LINERS DOWN, FALL APART AND COME LOSE. NOTHING YOU DO CAN HOLD THEM IN PLACE. WAY TOO MANY ISSUES TO LIST RIGHT NOW. I JUST WISH FORD WOULD STEP UP AND TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THESE ITEMS AND MAKE THEM RIGHT. THESE ARE BEAUTIFUL CARS AND I LOVE MINE, I JUST HATE THAT IT IS PUT TOGETHER CRAPPY AND SLOPPILY. *TR
