Picked up a 22 rubicon jlu today. As I was driving down the highway @ 70mph I opened the front windows and the rattle vibration from the support bar above the sound bar went crazy with vibration. So much so that the front passenger latch came undone. Has this ever happened to anyone? Im obviously going back to Jeep but curious if this is a common thing. Thank you

Nope! But mine is a 2 door so not really apples to apples ...rattles yes, but not so much that it pops the latch and I am usually doing much more than 70. Have them look at it!

My wife's JLU has a premium top on it for 6-7 months a year. We do lots of highway road trips in the summer with it, and have never seen that happen to hers. Are you sure it was latched properly at the start of your drive? If you just picked it up today, maybe it got bumped open during the detail before you drove it out of there.

I'd latch it and try to replicate before going back to the dealership.

Apparently this isn't uncommon.
