Hello team!

Please see photo attached.
My car has this in both sides of the fabric roof. It seems a design flaw. Any idea how to fix this without replacing whole roof?

Thank you!

What seems to be rubbing on the top?
My 2016 convertible is in perfect shape after all these years. Its also my daily driver. Nothing I can think of through normal use would cause this except MAYBE the secondary plastic tonneau caps being inserted to fill the exposed mechanism holes for a seamless look might do something like that. Are you using them by chance?

Hello,

Thank you for replying.

No, I don't use the covers.
I have the exact same marks on both sides; identical.

Kinda driving me crazy 😅

When I got the vert I made a game plan incase of rips etc and that was to simply find a fun patch like a smiley face, bullet hole,lightening bolt, Ford badge whatever and have it glued and sewn over top as a design feature.

Its probably rubbing on something during retraction and deployment. Look carefully around the trunk and such where it stows
