I had the same problem. Check for a tear on the underside of the top..,directly underneath where the fabric gets pinched. It's most likely torn from the metal piece that has popped out of the rubber shroud. Every time you open and close the top, this part rubs...eventually tears...and then pinches when you try to close the top back.
Solution --
1. Bend the metal back into place (hammer if necessary).
2. Glue a piece of velcro (fuzzy side up) to cover the exposed metal (gorilla glue works nice..but don't use too much!!)
3. Glue a piece of vinyl to the underside of the top (covering the rip)...use a good, flexible-type contact cement and let it sit for a couple of days to allow proper adhesion.
4. The velcro will slide on the vinyl and...no more pinched top!
