| Description of the problem | Water is leak through the canvas fabric on my soft top. When ice forms on the outside of the soft top of my 2008 jeep wrangler sahara unlimited it forces water through the fabric. Chrysler has told me they can not replicate the problem and were going to close the case. They told me they did not form ice on top of the car to test this situation. There is ice that forms on the interior fabrics and surfaces of the car as a result of water leaking through the soft top. I have documented pictures that i provided to chrysler and there are large water stains on the interior of the soft top. Leak causes water to drip on driver and passengers as well as cargo during vehicle operation. |
