Description of the problem	My 2008 jeep patriot is leaking from the dome light after heavy rain this past weekend. The seats in my car, the rug and dash were so wet i'm still airing out my car and i'm so paranoid about mold and rust, or even worse the car creating a short circuit while my kids are in the car. My radio went out as well as a result of all the water leaking through, this is so upsetting. I was so disgusted to find out that there were so many people with this same exact problem and jeep not recalling these cars or at least sending a voucher for whatever the expenses are to fix it. I read that some have had to take in their cars in more than once for the same repair and it doesn't get fixed, its like throwing money away. I? M still paying for my car and i don? T think that it is at all fair that i am paying for a car that i cannot trust now. Unfortunately i bought the car as is and that was my worst mistake ever. Jeep please do not ignore these pleas, we need safe reliable cars that we can trust. Beyond disappointed.
