Default Wet carpet

On my passenger side floor board when I lifted up the carpet it was soaking wet. Any thoughts what this could be? 2011 4dr wrangler

I had the same issue. There are a number of threads in the forum about this, including one by me. At the end of it all, I took mine into the dealer and they fixed the seal around the top right of my softtop. Been good ever since. Your mileage may vary ...

I have the freedom top, and when it rains heavy I would get water dripping in from the front center point between the two front panels and on the right corner of the passenger side panel. Take a look at your gaskets around the roof. They might need some reinforcement/replacement.

It is the seal in the A Pillar. I will try to post a link to useful info if I can find it.

My 2012 did that too. I have since cut the carpet out of the fronts only, and just run the floor mats in the front. SO much easier to clean and you won't miss having carpet under your seat
