I feel like it a matter of when not if, but I would like to see are there folks out there who haven't had their hardtopscars. Please mention whether if its a 2dr or 4dr and parked in a garage. Thanks.
2022 2Dr, parked inside and out. No cracks.

Hey Virus... looking at the weather reports today I was wondering if you can find your Bronco at all? (Glad I moved to NorCal)
First time I've had to clear snow from the interior.
The wind last night was brutal
It defeated all roof and door seals

I own a 2022 Badlands (4-door) ordered from the factory. 51K miles. Parked outdoors at home and exposed to four seasons worth of temp extremes, sun, salt and snow. So far so good…. No cracks.

'22 2-dr WT MIC, built 12/21, 27K miles bought used 7/2024 with 12K miles, parked in leaky covered parking area outside in the generally mild PNW weather. Nothing I'd personally classify as "defective" or cracked. I do tend to keep mine pretty dirty, though.

I believe that they all have cracks to some extent. Some are major and some are almost imperceptible. You have to look hard and know what you’re looking for. I didn’t think I had any, but my buddy with a 24 Bronco Raptor showed me, under the right lighting, that I had some under my rear cab windows on both sides of my 24 WildTrak. So did he? As does my daughter‘s 23 Badlands. Depending on temperature and humidity, they’re more noticeable on certain days. You can feel them better than you can see them.

I believe you have to really want to see cracks for them to appear. ;)

2025 2 dr, 8000 miles, I see no cracks. :)

Hmmmm.... if a crack is there, but no one sees it, is it really there? 🤔

Put a bunch of little bitty no-see-ums together and things can get ugly. I've been told analysis said the structure did not have the strength to sit static on the ground like it is, let alone land.

Prepare for the very small but very vocal and polarized angry 😤 few who are convinced every single MIC top has cracks (everyone else is just too dumb and/or blind to see) 3, 2, 1...
Ha, took the words right outta my mouth! That said, it's actually not really happening. A miracle. We do, however, have the contingent posting here who clearly can't read or follow simple instructions...
