I have water on the drivers side floor board only. No water anywhere else in the Jeep. It rained pretty hard over night, but this is the first time this has happened. Tops are seated properly and doors have never been off. It’s a 2019 Wrangler Unlimited. Any help would be great appreciated.

Start by checking the drains along the windshield header.

The irony of the following tip is not lost on your username. ;)


Fire up a hose and let it "rain" and look for where it's gaining entry.

That happened to me but on the passenger side. They had to replace the windshield gasket and both front door gasketes. Actually the passenger door twice before the leak stopped.

Check your windshield bolts.
I checked mine over the weekend and, the two outer bolts were less than finger tight.

Thanks. I’ll check them, but I don’t believe the windshield has ever been messed with, but I don’t know that for certain as I purchased used. Thanks again.

Same problem once Mike, but on the passenger's side floor board.

I took it to the dealer who summonsed their "leak whisperer." He claimed that crap had entered the place at the top of the Windshield were it interfaces with the Freedom Panels and ever since the problem's been fixed.

I rarely open my top.

Additionally, if you want to DIY this, these two products can help when you spray water:
