If this is what we are calling innovated, Ford can keep their innovation. We're on version 2 of this "innovation" so far and it looks equally as much of a flop as the first.Yeah. They cheated…… more like innovated.

These tags might help some determine if they are MIC 1.0I shall take a look and post if so.
I can’t believe it’s starting to look like my Lightning will be ready before my Bronco. Crazy.It would be my fall back if I could get my bronco in the first damn place (2dr sas and lux… and safari bar) if I’m not scheduled by March I’m ordering an f150 tremor.
I’d be more inclined to think you missed them on pickup versus 5 days of driving causing issues to suddenly arise. Either way you have a warranty, bring it to Fords attention and they can get images sent to engineering. Would have probably been a better first step as opposed to posting them on a forum to get peoples reactions don’t you think?
Updated photo from this AM. My hands aren't Samsquatch in real life, that's just the zoom level. You can see the fuzzy look on the edge, and that wasn't there when I picked it up 5 days ago. You REALLY have to be looking for it though.
Bad news, folks. This is a MIC 2.0 top built 10/1, delivered 4 days ago.
Top looked excellent at pickup. Did not notice any issues.. 4 days later, I notice I can see the old issue returning. Have not notified Ford yet.
Check your MIC tops CLOSELY on the rearmost panel by the windows. Appears to be pulling apart a bit.
I'll have a lot more photos and any other misc info coming shortly.
There is also slight honeycombing.
Edited for brevity.
Updated with some photos posted later in thread by @AJ_West_
Reread my post. Top aside a lot of innovation in the bronco the Jeep should have done a long time ago. Sway bar disconnect on the fly, the locker system is faster and easier to engage. IFS which kills the wrangler in 99% of situations with the exception of extreme scenarios which sadly 95% of people will never use their rigs for. Jeeps response to the bronco was to stuff a bigger engine in it and hope people don’t realize they haven’t kept up. Part of maintaining leadership in anything is innovation and improvement something jeep hasn’t really done. Hard tops aside which is a huge fail ford knocked it out of the park.If this is what we are calling innovated, Ford can keep their innovation.

Say again? I’m having trouble understanding your post.Doubt that was Ford.... I blame the 18 year old working midnights at Webasto and his dope smoking buddy in QC....
No. I don't. If I did, I would've done it that way. I have no loyalty to Ford - my concern lays with the people paying $60k or more for a vehicle that could come with major defects.I’d be more inclined to think you missed them on pickup versus 5 days of driving causing issues to suddenly arise.

Someone flood mike levines Twitter with all these shit top picsJust picked up my 2DRFE 10/22 and noticed a crack just now!
the mod tops will be shit too you wait and seeA soft top with hard top prep kit for two door models would have provided a temporary solution for this fiasco. Oh well, looks like I will be getting MY 23 Mod top…maybe in white…..
It's a safe assumption, seeing as we all got emails saying our builds were delayed waiting for MIC 2.0, and here we are with Broncos. Either Ford misspoke when they said we were delayed, or these are supposed to be MIC 2.0 tops.This entire thread is based on the assumption that the defective tops are in fact MIC 2.0 and that Ford followed through on a promise discussed on the forum that Broncos built after a certain date would be built with the new top. The “Primer Applied” shown earlier in the thread sticker isn’t exactly a “Manufactured on xx/xx Date” label…
Not saying for certain they aren’t MIC 2.0 but I’m not seeing any proof and I can come up with several other possibilities.
