2012 Bought last month new.

Has anyone else had a similar issue with the roof panel pieces separating once you put it into the latches in the trunk? I had noticed it was getting hard to put the panel back in place a week after purchase. After inspection I found the front corner plastic piece was loose. I snapped it back in and thought that would fix it. yet it keeps popping off every time and has cut the leather inside the car above the windshield.*

Does anyone know if this kind of thing is covered no hassle by the dealer? I emailed them and I am waiting for a response on it.

Wish I could help, but I've never seen that before. I've only had my top off a few times, but never experienced that problem.

First complaint I have read along this line also.

Let us know what the dealership does.

Good luck.

First time I have seen this problem.

I honestly think the panel may have had an issue from the start. I know the dealer was struggling to put it on after the test drive. I just figured it was because they don't sell many vettes there and are not familiar with them. It had 50 miles on the odometer when I picked it up. Just over 1200 now.

You said bought new. That should be covered under the 3/36 bumper to bumper. Get it to the dealer.

The dealer was struggling with it? Is there a chance that is how the damage occurred.

Ryan5508

cant really say. I think I caused the tear since I never noticed it until yesterday. The front bumper of the panel the dealer may have damaged but again I cant say. Could of shipped that way for all I know.

Well, the good news is that these are things that can be fixed. Best of luck with it.

The warranty should cover fixing the top, but not sure it would take care of repairing the damage. Worth a try though.

Yes, I broke one of those inserts by tilting up the roof panel up just a little _too_ far while it was stowed in the trunk. I was trying to reach something underneath the panel. I should have removed the roof panel entirely.

Replacements are cheap and snap right in. Sorry about the damage to the trim at the top of your windshield.

I'm sure they would give you a hassle if not for the warranty

c6 roofs are nice but not without their issues

It's a very poor (cheap) design for the roof equipment.My 2013 with 1700 miles on it now already had one of the things in your picture come out of it's socket...I put some crazy glue on it or whatever it's called nowadays...then it started raining so I haven't driven the car in quite a while.Hopefully the glue keeps the holder thing in place.
