They have not "recalled" any tops. If they were recalled they wouldn't be able to cherry pick which delivery origination areas of the country they were going to repair.
I realize a top is a wear and tear item, but bonded seams failing in this fashion and number is not wear and tear, its poor construction. My Limited has been garaged it's entire life and other than the top popping loose out of the blue one day the top is in great shape. At some point this is also going to affect the 06 07 08 and 09 models. The faulty bond didn't show up soon enough for the process to be corrected.
The posting above this one is frustrating to me. It sounds like the attorney generals of those states took care of their citizens and the rest of us were left out in the cold.
