Sorry man. I recently had my hard top leak and now nothing. It has rained the past two days on and off and it has all of the sudden stopped. I can't explain it. Hope it dosen't start back and hope you get yours fixed.

Mine does this too. 2011 4k miles. Lol I carry a rag in the jeep for rainstorms. :-) looks like the gutter in the corner of the windshield is the drain area, which unfortunately aims straight down the door jam or above the interior door handle. And above it looks like a sponge. Thanks chrysler. :-(

My hard top is leaking from the b pillar on the drivers side. Front top corner of the rear door seem to be the area.

I tried some black silicone upper top corner where the door meets the top. Went out to check it today & its still leaking.

I may have to schedule a trip to the dealer as I'm still under warranty.

I just hate, hate, hate going to the dealer though. Never a fun time.


I'd love to hear some more suggestions to this problem.

There is a recall on the gaskets (not sure if that's the proper term). Call your dealership. Free of charge to get em replaced.
