I've never had an issue with mine opening or closing, even at speeds in excess of 115 MPH.

I HIGHLY doubt it....Mine pops up just fine at high speeds.
those motors are pretty strong for the vent feature.

Yep I can vouch for that, lol. I even got a picture of Rogue when I did that, but I think it got lost when all the other pics got erased on my camera when it went mental on me.
