Top Does Not Close Fully
Hi,
I have noticed that as of late when I raise the soft top that it does not meet with the windshield. Every time that I close the top there is a 1.5" or more gap which requires additional effort to latch.
Does this mean that I need to replace my motors?

No, your motors are likely fine. It's just that there are times that the top is a bit stiffer. It could be due to the temp of the plastic or the time it has been down. Having a gap like you describe is not uncommon and isn't a big deal. They have a grab handle for yanking it down. Use it.
Next time or two, as the top gets to within a foot or two of the windshield, grab the handle or the top edge of the solid bar and help it down all the way to the windshield while holding the button. This may help the motors adjust its close limit on that end. Whether this helps or not, like I said, it's not a big deal until your top stops several inches away.
