Looks like Jeter was right. Found water dripping down the a-pillar. I put a hose on the roof just behind the top right corner above the a-pillar and saw water dripping down to under the floor mat. Any products I could use to seal up this leak? Or should I just take it to the dealership?

I just did the front corner toward fronts of doors.. Right were the bend is pulled 3/4 inch on top and 3/4 inch goin down the fronts of windows. So my seal NEVER has came out.. You just want to barely pull out the seal. All it does is makes the front corner seal meet the top of the soft top. The water still runs down the front channels! Was worried abit about water gettin behind seal and rusting door, but with all the rain we've had here in IN no issues!! Will try and take pic!
Looks like you left the corner in there, but just pulled out 2 inches or so on top and in front.

Yeah once I looked at it is about 2 inches top and bottom!! It stopped the water from comin in! One morning before work it was rainin hard and the back of my right leg was soaked, don't know how I didn't feel it... So I had to try something to fix it!!

Had my jeep for two weeks, tomorrow. About 600 miles on it.
Had some drenching rains here in Philly today - went outside for lunch (by myself), looked over and there was water dripping down the inside part of the passenger door (near the seat belt) and down on the passenger floor from under the little cargo netting.
Ive searched, and read, and have valued various options at repair and opinions on contacting the dealer... This is exactly why I got rid of my last car -
Do you think it's worth it for me to call/let them know/ask them to fix it or say "F it, its a jeep" and keep it moving? A HUGE part of me wants to say forget it, but I havent even made a payment on it yet, and my carpet/seat is already wet, is it worth it?
(BTW, I still have the hardtop on it, have taken the 2 front freedom panels off before but have made sure everything is tight/dry)...
