    Leaking water?

    Has anyone else had leaking water from their sunroof or the front pillars where the handles are? My jeep sat in the rain yesterday only for a couple hours and the floormats/floor were really wet. I am trying to see if anybody else has had this happen and what they did to fix it? Thanks guys

    Sounds like the sunroof drains are clogged. I haven't had the issue... but I know there's a relatively simple fix (clean them out).

    I bet Sal will have a link to step-by-step instructions...

    Came across this with a more detailed search: http://www.jeepcommander.com/forums/...&postcount=465

    You should give it a shot and write a "how to" for our tech section

    I don't have a link I'm guessing the link Matt provided from JC should be the one. I've read of people blowing out the drain plugs from both ends using compressors and canned air just use what you have I guess obviously don't have the compressor at 120PSI I also heard of the drain plugs coming undone and needed to be fixed dropping the head liner and pulling the A pillar covers exposes most all the places it runs to. Also had people pull the roof rail screws and reseal those as well so there are lots of places for water to get in. The secondary door sill is a TSB so check that too. With the front end rake on the stock setup you can be leaking in the back and it ends up pooling in the front floor boards but that's not as common as the other fixes.

    Mine just started doing this. Water somes out the bottom of the molding in front of the door. If that makes sense, but I am trying to clean out the drains this weekend. Let you know how it goes
