I’m sure that Webasto has a share of the blame here, maybe even the lion’s share. But it’s becoming clear to me that this is a design flaw. Ford got cute and decided to outdo Jeep by making a fancier top and it’s too hard to manufacture and check for quality. Jeeps don’t have any problems like this with painted or MIC tops. The top design is inherently flawed. That’s the only logical conclusion here. Even Ford “assuming operational control” over the Webasto plant did nothing to fix this. The design just doesn’t work.I think the relevant thing to remember is that even some MIC tops that passed Ford inspection, dealer prep, and owner inspection are showing significant deterioration within 3 - 4 weeks of delivery. We just don't know how many.
