Quality issue

[Trauma Jeep]

I just took delivery of my 2024 JLU and didn’t notice these issues with the weather stripping around 2 of the 4 windows. What would you guys do? I know there are a lot of “it’s a Jeep thing” comments, but for what we pay they should have tighter QC tolerances before it’s delivered to the customer.

Make them fix it.

Definitely make them fix it. A lot of people are kinda nit-pickey here about silly things here and other people use the ‘it’s a Jeep thing’ pretty flippantly.

I personally hold my jeeps to the same standard as any other vehicle. And they have been fine.

Make ‘em fix it and any other issues that crop up.

Thank you

I’d text the pics to your sales guy. When I’ve had deliveries issues in the past, service jumped on it if the sales guy gave a little push.

Take it back to them and either they can fix it or replace the seals
Do you have more road noise or water going around the seal Into the cabin?

I just sent my salesman text. I am still waiting to take me all important survey, so I am sure he will be happy to help.

They should not give you a hard time about it but every service department is so different from each other. If they do have to replace the seals just make sure there aren't a ton of scratches around the window from fixing it.
One of my Jeeps got a rock through the windshield while the service manager was driving it, they replaced the windshield and pretty much damaged the entire surround

Jeeps have quality issues????

Seriously, yes, this should be fixed by the dealer.

At least you don't own a Bronco made out of office supplies.

Bring it back, they’ll take care of it. I was missing a screw in a door panel. I didn’t notice it till a week or so later and they still took care of it.

That's bad, definitely put in a warranty claim.

Hopefully that window channel can be adjusted so it lays flatter or can be replaced.

This, unfortunately, is a Jeep Wrangler thing. The window channels have always been clunky and piecemeal looking since the dawn of the JK Wrangler (2007). It should lay flat against the door frame, though, you don't want extra dirt and water getting in there.

Yeah, dealer should fix it at no cost to you. You don’t want a bad seal on your new Jeep that could let water in there.

I would 100% have them fix it. The "it's a Jeep thing" does not fly. Those words are for those that don't really care about quality control. When I pay $75,000 for a Jeep... I better get $75,000 worth of quality.
