2008 Convetibe Top ribs
 
Good Day everyone: Has anyone had problems with the ribs on the convertible tops? On my 2008 the rib closest to the rear window is either broken or disconnected from the linkage on the passenger side. Can't see in without removing molding to free the cloth cover. Top raises & lowers OK, but I am concerned it will get pinched & cause real damage.
