Well it rained today and after a whole 2900 miles and 3 no touch carwashes it happened. Yes you guessed it, the dreaded wet floorboard. It has never leaked yet after 4 hrs of steady not heavy rain the carpet was soaked. Never would've checked except there was water on top of my slush mat. Guess it'll go to the stealership

I assume it is a 2012? I can't believe they rolled out the 2012 without the proper fix and was a constant issue from the previous yrs

Nope last 2011 they had on the lot. Bought it 2 months ago with 4 miles on it so it was one of the last 11's.

That's a known problem for some '11's. I've had the door seals replaced, doors adjusted, and right rear passenger weather stripping replaced over the past two weeks. Just got it all completed yesterday...now I wait for the rain to test the work. Good luck!

Had the same issue with mine. There OS a TSB out fir the fix. The dealer replaced my weather striping and adjusted the door two months ago. So far no issues. Fingers crossed.

Good lick with the fix.

Came to the dealership where I bought it(free oil changes for life). Told the service writer I need first oil change and I have water in the floor. Then I ask how long will it take to perform the tsb. He looks at me like I'm from a whole other dimension. He begins telling me that I'll have to make an appointment when their leak detector company is here! WTF!!! they have a tsb! It's a known fact that they are leaking and he acts surprised.

Well put my hardtop off of my 07 on now it's leaking driver side bpillar. Will they cover those seals since the jeep is under warranty but the top is not the original. It came with the softtop.

Is this leak on the drivers front? My wife's jeep just developed a leak there and it seems to leak from where the top meets the plastic frame you have to bolt in.

Yes it's leaking somewhere in there. It's running down where the seatbelt adjuster is. The top never leaked in my 07 not sure why it is on my 11
