Do soft tops leak less for Jeep Wranglers?

2019-10-26 10:01 pm
Ok so I have a 2019 Jeep Wrangler 2 door hard top. It was my dream car to have one of these. And after driving basic cars for so long it took me a while to get used to it’s quirks. Something I know isn’t normal is the roof leaking every time it rains. I took the front panels off only a few times since taking delivery of this car in July mainly because it was such a hot and miserable summer and now it’s too cold. The panels are in place and not damaged so there shouldn’t be any leaks. However the front of the panels against the windshield leak when it rains. More so when it’s parked and it has rained. Also water leaks in from the back window. Water drips on the inside of the seal and I find myself constantly turning on the rear wiper to only discover all that water is inside. I took the car in to the dealer last month concerning these issues. They gave me advice and sent me on my way. I have another appt scheduled Tuesday and I hope they fix this. I live in a apartment so I don’t have a garage it will always be outside. Even in the snow which I’m also worried about. I was thinking are the soft tops better? If so I’m getting one.

First, take off the panels and make sure that none of the seals are bent/damaged. It can happen, even on new Jeeps. I must have put my panels on "different" once, because it only leaked one time and after I took them off and reset them, it didn't leak again.
Second, apply Honda Shin-Etsu grease on all seals. Do this annually, either way. It keeps the seals soft and pliable.
Third, if you are really stuck, take it back to Jeep. It is a warranty-able complaint.

Try joining a Wrangler-based forum, like WranglerForums.com. Lost of good info there and a good resource for better, specific answers than Yahoo!Answers.

Good luck!

I bought the same as you last March My soft top never leaked. Jeep did send me a bag with bottle of goo in it and I threw it away. The goo may have been soft top sealant. What color is your Jeep?

In my experience, any type of removable top will eventually leak.
