Roof And Pillar problems of the 2007 Jeep Wrangler

The contact owns a 2007 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated that while driving 40 mph in the rain the soft top on the vehicle began leaking on the driver and passengers side where the doors meet. If water leaked on the electrical components in the vehicle they could rust or a fire may occur. The contact took the vehicle to the dealer for the water leak and they replaced the door seals on the driver and passenger side; however, that has not remedied the failure. The dealer stated that it was a design flaw in the soft top and the door seals. The contact called the manufacturer regarding the leaking soft top and they would not provide any assistance. The VIN was not available. The failure mileage was 59,500.

Leaking soft top on my 2007 Jeep Wrangler. Leaks from the right and left front doors over the door handles.

I am currently in possession of a Jeep Wrangler 2 door with a soft top. The only problem with the car is that the soft top leaks like a faucet anytime there is rain. While at first I thought it to only be a nuisance, after the third time I began to notice many problems related to the leaks. The floormats were constantly soaked and eventually started to form mildew, the pedals would become slippery and difficult to operate due to the wetness, the water was occasionally leaking into to speakers on the vents on the dashboard and working its way into the rear of the dashboard, and the seats tended to slide a little bit on the rails that are used to lock the seat in place while driving. This is a widespread problem for the 07 and 08 Wranglers and dealerships seem to be brushing it off as a minor inconvenience. However, when the water starts affecting other systems of the car it is no longer an inconvenience, it is now a safety item. That is why I am bringing this item to your attention.

1-bought 2007 Jeep Wrangler brand new 2-soft top was leaking over seat belts, the floor behind the driver and passenger seats are wet after rains. 3-dealer said that the salesman put the top on wrong and it was fixed. Top still leaks, dealership said that all the soft tops leak and it is just that way. Now I always park my Jeep in the garage, but sometimes I happen to be at work during a rain storm. I do not think it is right that dealerships can get away with this. There should be a recall on all the tops leaking. The manufacturer should pay for these to be fixed.
