2023 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon
It took a week to figure out where the air was getting in. I taped off different areas around the passenger side trim and even the windshield. Finally found that air was creeping in around the pillar 3/4 of the way up the windshield. I bought some marine and automotive weather stripping from Lowes and laid the windshield down and snugged it next to the factory weather stripping. Worked like a charm. Jeep needs to be a bit more observant on the quality control of this. At 35 mph you hear it clearly and something like that should never be overlooked. I hope this help a few ppl.

I have this on my new gladdy but Im going to call dealer to fix it. With 600 miles, I should only be doing upgrades, not fixing jeeps problems but I did the same thing, painters tape along the door. Its only the passenger side
