Consumer Description

TOOK CAR IN TO 3 DIFFERENT DEALERS TO HAVE THEM FIX WATER LEAKS & AIR WHISTLING AND NONE COULD FIX IT. THEY SAID THERE WAS A FLAW IN THE DESIGN OF THE TOP. THEY TRIED SPRAYING FOAM ON EDGE, ADDING AN ELASTIC STRAP (#8894 PART), TRIED ADJUSTING TOP - NONE OF THESE EXERCISES WORKED. NOW YET ANOTHER DEALER IN JOPLIN TOO TELLS US THERE'S NOTHING THAT CAN BE DONE AS IT'S A FLAW IN THE DESIGN/CONSTRUCTION. THERE IS ALSO A WHISTLING IN THE A/C SYSTEM OR VENTS WHEN A/C IS ON AND DRIVING 40+ MILES AN HOUR. SEVERAL TIMES WHILE DRIVING IN "D" THE TRANSMISSION DOESN'T SHIFT OUT OF LOW GEAR. *AK
