MIC Top -Day 2 comments & pics

First World Problems. No, it's not perfect, but it is still functional and I'm darn jealous you get to have fun before I do. I had a 1972 Fiat 850 Sportster Spider that the top to windshield seal was so bad that if I drove in the rain I had to wear googles. I still miss that old car.....

Reminds me of pretty much everything in the the 70s leaked lol. T-Tops, targa tops, convertibles, vent louvers over an engine, etc list goes on. I will say I had a 77 CJ7 one piece hard top that didnt leak

I'm sure that by now Ford realizes that all MIC buyers will show up at their dealers with a flashlight and a laminate consultant in tow

FWIW, I asked my sales dude if the roof is covered by warranty on a recent call and he assured me that it is and that I wasn’t the first person to ask that due to the known issues about the roof. Honestly, there’s nothing the dealer can do about it, they want it to be covered as much as we do to cover their butts.

Bestop has a 2 door top, just get that and throw that mic into the dealers lot.

Yeah, call it first world problems when the top on your $50k+ brand new vehicle starts swelling from moisture and crumbles away while you wait for the dipshit company that screwed up that top to give you a new one that might be worse.

This is unacceptable and these tops should be 100% perfect out of the factory. No swells, scratches, delamination, snakeskinning...none of it. The more of this garbage I see the more I think I want to push my order to a 2022 and hope these morons find some competence or get their shit together in a few extra months.

This is beyond ridiculous.

Have you considered Decaf?

Make sure when you report an issue, any issue, that your dealer creates a repair order with the current mileage, even if that's at the time of delivery. We need to create a roadmap with photos (digital imaging), mileage and date. The way things are looking Ford will probably end up having to come out with a program to either extend coverage or do replacements when this is finally sorted out. Telling someone is NOT the same as having it documented with a repair order.

My salesman already hates me. Once I inspect the car, he’s REALLY gonna hate me. I plan to pull off every panel and inspect every square inch. All edges, surfaces, seals, seems, fit, etc. (and that’s just the roof). With the intent on claiming any and all of it before I take possession.

nope, my 70 year old dad likes it though.

If not caring that your brand new vehicle is right then cool I'm glad for you but that shit ain't flying here.

This is exactly the way it should be. Every edge, side, panel inside and out...every single inch will need to be checked, photographed and documented before the thing even leaves the lot.

I should probably take some extra large water buckets to use to pour over the mic top to test for water tight integrity before accepting from the dealer.

No need. Your dealer has a water hose.

Yup. Anyone that doesn’t give a shit is a fool. Or just lazy. But nothing surprises me these days

To say someone doesn't give a sh*t or is just lazy is being overly juvenile. Not everybody needs to suffer from High Blood Pressure. Some of us don't want to have a stroke expecting the Perfection impossibility. To each their own. I prefer to enjoy the process rather then be a harpy about every little detail of a vehicle I don't even own yet.
