I just got my Jeep at the start of the winter so I hadn't taken the top off until this week. When putting it back on, a few of the teeth on the zipper didn't catch right. Now there's a bubble on the zipper and I get get the slider to go back across it. I'm afraid to force it or to rip it open for fear of not being able to zip it back up after or doing more damage. I'm assuming that some of you Jeep veteran's have had similar problems. Any suggestions? I would hate to have to spend a lot of money on repairs or a new top over a few zipper teeth. Also, anyone know if this might be covered under the warranty since it is a new vehicle?

ok, never mind... i just saw "04 unlimited" near your avitar... you need to get a sig! ;D
simple fix... go to the dealer, and say "I just got my Jeep at the start of the winter so I hadn't taken the top off until this week.

I know billy's dealer fixes everything for him!

im kinda in the same boat, but my yj is a helluva lot older ;D unfortunitly my entire upper seam on my pass. rear zipper disintigrated after takeing it off for the first time, so now im left with a gapeing hole in the back.. Ive never had any good experiances with "stealerships" but considering yours is pretty new, mabey you'll get some good treatment. if not mabey an upholstery shop could repair it ?

I'm going to bring it to Millbrook where I bought it.
