Since we got our truck, we have been cursed with the phantom "Roof Ajar" error message. The computer shows everything buttoned up tight, but if we hit a bump - sometimes it takes a good jolt to do it - the chime sounds and the error appears in the DIC (I hate when that happens). Then you get the chime and message every mile you travel.
It is not an always on problem because sometimes after the top has been down, no error is displayed for a while. Then it magically reappears. We had the truck in to have the latch/switch replaced because that is what a service bulletin said was the fix. A couple days after that, bump and it's back.
I took the truck in this morning to have it checked out again but no joy. They are getting with the regional service folks (whatever they call them) to get more information. I brought the truck on home because it is mostly an annoyance but we can live with it and they wouldn't give me a Vette as a loaner. Trust me, I tried.
I don't feel as bad now as when I went in. There was a red one in for a similar problem. Except his also sometimes gives the error and sometimes his also leaks!! So, I guess his roof really is ajar.

P.S. On a good note, the rear fender protectors (do those have official GM-speak names?) on ours where not the tightest fit. I asked about getting the passenger side fixed and the body shop manager said he would order new ones for both sides. The drivers side looks good to me but he said that it should be better. That will be taken care of in a couple weeks when the new ones come in.
