Leaking Freedom top

[Willking757]

I have a 21 HA and last year my fron freedom tops started leaking. I took to the dealership who order parts/seal/ to replace which they did and leaked became worse. Took bak and they order and replaced parts again to no fix. Take back the third time and they finally say the freedom top is off by a 1/4 of an in and causing the leak. Chrysler would not replace the top and said it was my fault. I immediately called Chrysler to speak with about covering it under warranty and they said nope and that it was my fault. 2k to replace. Anyone else have the same issue because I feel Chrysler should honor the replacement if not I want to get a group together to go after.
Keep on Jeeping!!

The big question here is, how the hell is it YOUR fault? That's what I'd be asking them. All you do is drive it and get dripped on because there is an issue with the FACTORY top they supplied when you purchased it.

Maybe, just maybe, another option is to get a Bestop SunRunner top to replace your Freedom Panels? That way you get the ease of opening the roof when you want and closing it again when you need to just with your hands and not having to lug around the panels each time. I have one on mine and it doesn't leak at all...even going through a car wash.

Just my $0.02 ($0.03 Canadian).

Thanks Steven,
I did take them off and put them in the bag and then put them back on so apparently I threw them off a cliff before I put them back on. I did call and tell them that and they didn't give a rats ass. I just really like having a white top.

Contact your state AG and see if they can push the needle in your favor. Dealership is just going to parrot what Stellantis tells them.

I have a feeling they are balking because they are color matched and that adds a layer of complication for them.
