Default 11 wrangler wet floor

I have had my sahara for a little more than a month passenger side floor is really wet. Has anyone got their problem resolved with the dealer and if so what was the cause?
Just put on my soft top today so it has been leaking with the hard top.

Well....I also have had mine less than a month and got it back yesterday for the same thing. They played around with the door seal; not replacing but removing, adding sealant and reinstalling. Fixed??? I have my doubts. Why doesn't the drivers side door require this sealant? I will let you know. I'm not convinced it is leaking from the door.

I talked to the dealer today they have a guy that comes around on Tuesdays and that is all he does is troubleshoot leaking jeeps. They want me to put the hard top back on so he can tell where it is leaking because I just found out yesterday when I put the soft top on. I am going to dry the floor and keep an eye on it with the soft top on. The dealer is fox Chrysler in Owen sound if you want to call them I will let you know what I find out

CRAPPY.
my soft top is leaking this year (bad) on the passenger side right in the top front left corner. It never did last year ????? The water just flowes into the cab . I have takin it to the local dealer and They have no idea why , and they are not planning on replacing the top either . I am going to try a different dealer in the city and see if they can give me a new one , and we are having more than usual rain this year so my jeep gets more rain in it than it should

Did you get the replacement steel header panel or do you still have the original factory one. If you still have the factory plastic it is possible that it warped during storage this past winter. You are out of warranty now prob for the header replacement. You can try and clean the front windshield moulding and the underside of the header panel, too much dirt in there and it will not seal properly.

Our new 4 door Sahara, leaks in passenger front,too. I've had it less than a month. Dealership replaced the door seal. We'll see if that works. Given that 4 of us have same problem is more than a coincidence.

Mine leaked yesterday with the soft top on I will call the dealer this week and tell them we don't have to wait for the hard top to be put back on. It's got to be a design flaw and I'm sure they are aware of it

I wouldn't say its a design flaw as much as it probably is a defective piece on yours. And I do realize that a few people have had problems, but.. We have 3 JKs, an 07, 08 and 09 and have had no leaks in any, hardtop or softtop. In our circle of Jeep JK friends I haven't come across one of them yet that leaked either. The softtop header design is the same from 07-11.
If you had the leak with the hardtop it is most likely that door seal issue that Woodman speaks of.

Well mine still leaks after the first attemp. After what I seen on the way to work today; it does look like the door seal. But.....why the passenger door?
