I have the Honda Certified Warranty and a top with some small holes in it. I took it to the dealer and they could not fix it. They still want to try one more guy who is supposed to melt the holes. I really do not want this as it will be visible and hurt resale value. Although the holes are small, there is about an inch-long weak spot in the fabric around one spot that will eventually rip. I think this has been caused by a faulty cross-bar in the top.
The question is this...has anyone had their top replaced under warranty? I would like any info about getting this done in case the dealer does not want to do it. Any stories or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
