| Description of the problem | 1-bought 2007 jeep wrangler brand new 2-soft top was leaking over seat belts, the floor behind the driver and passenger seats are wet after rains. 3-dealer said that the salesman put the top on wrong and it was fixed. Top still leaks, dealership said that all the soft tops leak and it is just that way. Now i always park my jeep in the garage, but sometimes i happen to be at work during a rain storm. I do not think it is right that dealerships can get away with this. There should be a recall on all the tops leaking. The manufacturer should pay for these to be fixed. |
