THE PRE 2014 CONVERTIBLES HAVE DEFECTIVE TOP OPENING MECHANISM WHICH FAILS AFTER A FEW YEARS AND PREVENTS THE TOP FROM CLOSING PROPERLY. THIS PROBLEM IS VERY COMMON ON ALL PRE 2014 CONVERTIBLES. THE MECHANISM WAS CHANGED IN 2014 TO AVOID THIS DEFECT BUT EARLIER MODELS WERE NOT RECALLED FOR REPAIR/REPLACEMENT LEAVING OWNERS WITH A VERY EXPENSIVE ($16,000) REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO RECALL ALL MODELS AT RISK AND REPLACE DEFECTIVE TOPS WITH CURRENT MECHANISM.

Emerging complaint spikes

Complete months in the latest six months with at least 10 complaints, at least twice the preceding 12-month average, and at least three square-root deviations above that average.

This is a descriptive screening rule, not a statistical defect finding. Publicity and reporting changes can increase submissions.

No complete months meet the spike thresholds for this selection.

Equal-age model-year comparison

Model-wide cumulative reports during the first three or five calendar years, starting with the model year (age 0). Only fully elapsed windows are compared.
