See, if they would just advertise like that and make it known, it would have been never purchased in the first place. If I wanted a wet interior, I would leave the top off all the time.


Thanks for all the well wishes everyone!!

 

Jeeps are like a marriage, they're not perfect and you have to be committed to making it work for better or worse, for richer or for poorer, until death do us part!...

 

I know how you feel about the leaks. Mine were fixed though. I wish every dealer could be like the one that I deal with. My jeep didn't start to leak at 33,000 miles. But it did take two trips to get it done.

Good luck on your next purchase if there is one.

 

My cj 7 never leaked. It was 20 years old when I sold it.

 

Leaks, especially those that occur from rain water are so EASY TO FIX!!! Try fixing yourself. Get some chalk and a waterhoseand wet it down real good. Find the leaking area by the smeared chalk and build up the seals with silicone or simply replace them, too easy to do instead of getting frustrated

You'll have a hard time finding another vehicle as solid as our Jeeps. They may be covered in aluminum foil but they are a brick on wheels.

It's only the top. Mine leaks a little, so what? What this thing is capable of is so much more worth it to me than some water drips. I'm a Mechanical Engineer and have come to realize that they had unqualified people working on the JK. So, I've fixed things here and there to make up for Chrysler's incompetence.

 

glad to say mine hasn't leaked yet. i've heard that driving through a car wash is the best way to make sure the top leaks... hope my luck continues. and i agree with the post about the lemon law. pursuing that has to be better than taking a loss just to get rid of it. i dont think leaking tops is the norm?!?!?

 

I really am not trying to be argumentative, but if they are so easy to fix, why couldnt a dealership do it, and furthermore, why can't jeep prevent it?

 

I think the Lemon Law only applies to MECHANICAL issues and mainley with the drivetrain and not the ancillary parts. Someone correct me if I am wrong???

I have to agree with the original poster in that it gets real old real fast when you have to take your sh1t in for the same stuff over and over. Some dealers are absolutely clueless. I told me SA about the transmission overheat TSA for months and he told me I was full of sh1t and there was is no such issue out there or TSA. Know your fricking business and know your fricking product. Hate to say it but it's not just limited to Chrysler. Seems like they all (manufactures) just want your money and don't want to provide any after delivery service.

 

i didn't realize that about the lemon law. bummer. have you (the OP) tried other dealerships or just your local one? our local chrysler dealer is the PITS. i wouldn't waste my time taking my jeep there. i go on up the road to the big city.
