This frustrates me to no end. I don't have a power jack so putting it up and down, trying to take the pressure off is tiring. That's the longest part of my setup. I can spend 15-20 min just trying to...

That really sucks. At this point I would probably be getting in touch with a lawyer. At the very least you should have new canvas, especially since the dealer messed it up. What were they thinking...
