You guys are always so helpful, so I'm hoping you can help me figure out what is going on with my soft top.

It has separated from the actual truck on the back passenger side corner, right above the tail light.
In the first photo, you can see where it has separated from what looks like the glue (?) on the back of the truck.
In the second photo, I tried to depict where it has raised up so much that I can literally see into the vehicle all the way over to the other side.

I haven't had the top all the way open yet. I've only had the convertible top partially open twice so far.
Any clue as to why it's doing this, and what I need to do to fix it? Or is this something I should be taking it back to the dealership for?
Thanks in advance! :)

Looks like the rear portion isn't latched down all the way. Have you popped open the rear lately? You really need to slam it back down to re-clip the latches.

I believe what you say is glue is just a protective film for the paint when the top is latched down completely, so I wouldnt stress that bit.

As said above I would definitely lift the rear up and slam it down to make sure its just a latching issue as this would more than likely be the cause of that degree of separation. Let us know how it goes

Yep, that was it! THANK YOU! I hadn't opened up the back hatch yet either, so I wasn't aware of the clips back there. The one on the right just needed to be re-latched. That a quick fix.
Thank you both! ❤
