...or design putting excessive tensile peel-stress on the adhesive/glass interface. <5 years is premature for a vert top to fail. That said, convertible and fabric/vinyl vert tops never last forever ... ~5-10 years is normal for top longevity (5 if kept outside, 10 if garaged).
My local top guy replaces Camaro tops for the local dealers (both their warranty and non-warranty work). When I had my wife's '07 in for a new top a couple years ago I stopped by with the Z. He had just replaced a top on a '18 RS the dealer had on the lot ... one of Cox's PDI techs had put something on it that dissolved the adhesive (turned it white).
$#!t happens... sooner or later, but it happens.
