I hope they are replacing the doors and hood that have bubbling on the edges. Otherwise, it's gonna come back very quickly
They should be, it's made its way under the seam sealer inside the doors, I will be messaging tomorrow to confirm if they are. The hood is fine just a bit starting on the windshield frame

I'm wondering what the long-term solution to this bubbling issue is going to be, from the manufacturer??
Hey, @JeepCares , can you please let us know where us Wrangler owners are on this Major Problem?? Does Jeep really care?
Do you see the percentage of people with this issue??
No reply from @JeepCares speaks volumes about what they think about this issue. I own two Wranglers, a 21 JLUR and 23 392. I found one tiny spot on my 21 JLUR where the hood hinge attaches. Nothing on my 23 392 yet. My brother-in-law also has a 21 JLUR and is getting the run around from @JeepCares and local dealers.

And still, some people think Jeep Cares.

Another way to look at it - they've sold over a million of the JL model so less than 400 with bubbles isn't bad at all.


just kidding! (kinda)

Great, now they are going to use your post in their advertisements.
Just kidding, or am I?

My last go round with the "care team" advised me to tell the dealer what to do!

After months of trying to get the dealer to get off the dime and fix it, I'm supposed to teach him his job! :mad::mad::mad::mad:

Went to dealer Thursday.
To be replaced.
All door hinges.
3 of the 4 door panels.
The hood & hinges.

Expecting parts in a month and no Jeep for 2 weeks.

Fingers crossed the 4th door starts bubbling quickly. Warranty expiring in 6 months.

Just picked up my Wrangler back from the bodyshop this morning for the two doors and windshield frame. They replaced two of the hinges but other than that repaired everything else with a lifetime warranty on the repair from the bodyshop. Estimate came up to $4100. They did not blend, only panel painted, not exact match but not offensive, I'm ok with it. It matches the hood I painted several months ago. Cost me 200$ deductible to replace my cracked windshield at the same time to do for proper paint coverage

Thanks for the pics! I think these are pointing to the source of a problem I have since getting my doors replaced. I've been feeling a breeze at times while driving and wondering where its coming from. I think the dealer forgot to put the seam sealer caulk stuff on the weatherstripping pieces. Unfortunately, all doors were replaced so I didn't have a reference point for the source of the leak but I did notice that there were gaps which that sealer in your pics fills.

Just found bubbles starting in my bought in March 2019. It has never needed dealer service. PM'd JeepCares.
Good luck with the JeepCares thing.
