jmmcnea - that sucks man. I hope you get justice. After having a bad expereience with an extended warranty, I opted not to get it for my ZR.
The dealer tries to sell this as an 'extension' of the factory warranty....but when it comes time to exercise it, they break out the fine print.

I had my soft top replaced because it kept on getting stuck ...every time it folded in ...it was fully on the factory's warranty ...many people have been complating that there tops get stuck and eventually rip... 6 weeks after installing my new top the car is doing the same problem getting stuck... does any one else have this kind of problem.???

Mine effed up at the dealership on delivery of the car…. Of course they’d never heard of that happening before…. And “don’t worry about it…. it probably won’t happen again.”

I got it installed locally in San antonio for $395....they did an awesome job..
Canvas replacement tops for the 350Z are the way to go. It makes the car look much more expensive!!!

this is not so much a problem but a general question:
my softtop is starting to look kind of dull and washed out
is there a way or a product i could buy to make my softtop look new again or very black.
Thanks guys

just looked at the seams of my softtop today while filling up.
the corners are starting to separate a little. nothing as major as the OP, but it's starting on me.
it's a 2005 with 14k.

well after doing so, i have till March 14.
and even then, the general manager has to look at it and approve it that it's something that's covered under warranty.
they better not give me any flak.....

Just make sure each time you go to the dealer that you get documented proof, date, mileage & your new top request receipt from the dealer. Each visit, do not accept any verbal remarks or answers with-out a computer receipt. They should of taken a pic of your top, either one or two and a pic of your odometer reading. Yes it does have to be approved but stay on top of it and be professional about it.
