Its been raining here so now I seems to have joined the Wet Floor Club. My drivers side carpet is soaked. I sucked water out twice now with my shop vac but the pad is still wet. This seems like a common Jeep problem from what I read online. Is there a comprehensive list of potential leak sites for the GC to check. I do not have a sun roof; that eliminates one huge issue. Any help and/or suggestions welcomed.

No I don't have a sun roof. I bought this car used with 26,000 miles and now have about 45,000 miles on it. Its a straight 6 and runs great. I like the Jeep and this wet floor is the only issue I have had. I will go see my local dealer and see what he has to say. As many Jeeps that seem to leak water they must have some idea where to look.

Found leak at right cowl area. Repaired passenger side leak at right cowl area. Total Charge: $204.00 About a week later, we had a violent rainstorm. Passenger side floor soaked again. Returned to dealer. This time they sealed door moisture barrier. No Charge. Another week...another rainstorm..another soaked floor. Returned to dealer a third time. They spotted a leak in cowl area. Resealed front cowl. No Charge. |

I have my Jeep in the shop. They have pulled the soaked floor mat and are going to replace it. The windshield had to be resealed, many many little leaks have been found. They have a special spray chamber they test in. Jeep should go into the sieve business, Its been a week and still they work. Cost is a little high but sure beats a moldy carpet.

Well we had a fairly rainy few days and no sign of wet carpet, whew, sure glad. The shop did take care in their work and it seems they have fixed the problem. Time will tell. I hope in a year or two I will be able to say I have quit the WFC.
