Just got a new ST Lite and love it! Only issue is with the folding air deflector on the moonroof - when it folds in on closing, one corner of the fabric gets caught and sticks up when it’s closed.

Anyone else have this or should I just let the dealer look at it?

Welcome to the forum. Should be a warranty issue.

Thanks, BB! Definitely a warranty issue, but if there’s a quick driveway fix, I’ll all for it.

Sounds like it folds the wrong way. Open the moonroof and push the deflector down/closed with your hand and watch. The fold should go “in”. If it’s folding out, then manually push it in while closing the roof. You may need to tape it down. Leave it this way for a while until it takes a “set” folding in the right direction.

Of course, it could be torn or damaged as well.

Welcome, where are you from in Virginia? My wife grew up out there so we're always between there and WV.
