    The day after a bad rain storm I noticed some water spots on the inside access cab door. Last night we had a bad storm and this morning I found water on the driver seat. It's not a lot, but it's enough to notice. It looks like it's coming in from where the two doors meet. This is a 2021 truck so it is not something that I expected to have happen.

    Has anyone else experienced this and how did you fix it?

    I would think it's the rear break light but that water is traveling a good way to that area. Is the headliner wet by the back glass?

    Sounds like a bad weather seal or the door needs adjustment . I would take it to the dealer for the repair being that’s it’s brand new .

    check your door seals. might be one that has a failed adhesion or could be pinched or cut maybe? i think sometimes with Jeeps with the removable hard roof panels, sediment and grit can build up in there and cause an improper seal that allows water in.

    I was curious if this was something that anyone else has experienced before reaching out to the dealer.
