Default Leaky Softtop. Help Please!

I'm sure others out there have experienced the leaky softtop at top of doors aprrox. above door handle area. Is there a recall or t.s.b. to help me get this fixed. This is my first jeep, always wanted one, just didnt expect a leaky one. Please help!

Yeah I understand the "softtop drip and dribble" but i filled up 2 inches in my wetvac with the water i vacuumed out of the drivers side floor.

Thats a bit excessive... You should have just pulled the plug... You can try going to the dealer but knowing them they will jsut do some half ass fix then blow smoke up your ass about how its a top of the line fix. The guy a couple posts up has a good idea..

Do you know what they actually did to fix it?
