Default Holes in my 2010 soft top

I found a hole on each side of the sof top on my 2010 4 dr just over the front seats by the frame today. The rig only has 6k on it. I'm planning on heading to the dealer to see about getting it replaced under warranty. Anyone else with this problem?

I had pin holes in 2 places on mine the first time I switched it over from the hard top to the soft top. They replaced it with no issues.

I'll try to get some pics of it. The dealer took a bunch yesterday to submit for approval, and is supposed to call me today to let me know.

When I fold the top back, I do exactly as stated. Fold the material nicely before getting pinched by the metal. I'm not one for a bunched up top laying in the back LOL.

I have the same thing. It's from folding the top back wrong. The black U-shaped parts on the end of the frame dig into the fabric if it's folded wrong. The edge of the "U" will rub right through the top. Just fold your W the right way and it won't happen.

I would think a marine shop would be able to repair the canvas.
