You got lucky then. Both my hardtop and soft top have a leak and the dealer is talking exchanging freedom panels already.

Did they check the weather stripping? Are the panels straight edged or warped? The only way I could see for the setup to leak is if the plastic panels were somehow cast wrong and warped so they do not fit tightly, or the weather seal strips are defective and have a gap, since the entirety of their lipped edges rest on weather sealing along the roll bars and each other and latch down very snug once you put them on. I can certainly understand weather gaskets having a defect, and maybe even a potential flaw with the plastic panels being molded since plastic is a pain to work with. On the bright side at least your stealership is remedieing the issue.

As for soft tops, jeep soft tops seem to always leak, just go sun shade or jeep kini, cause at least then theres no expectation of it stopping leaks.....

Went from '07 X to '14 Rubicon X, after looking into the Sahara. Was leaning toward to Rubicon, and when finally finding an X package, cinched the deal.
