They showed me what it consists of. It is a little kit that comes w/ new BIGGER seals for the top frame, and smaller insert seals that go under the existing door weatherstrip in 3 places.......all of this comes in 1 packet per side.

When I picked it up I inspected with a fine tooth comb.....as it only has 2400 miles on it. The job was done very cleanly. It is supposed to rain tonight......so that will be the determining factor.....although when I picked it up from the dealer the outside was wet and the inside was dry....so we are a step in the right direction!!

I know that this thread is sort of useless without pics.....and I am sorry for that...I will take some pics tomorrow when it is light out. Hopefully any of you out there that have this problem can get it taken care of like I did! HOPEFULLY being the key word!! Jeep on!!!!!

Only happens when it sits at that angle in a pretty good rain. Have had it through plenty of carwashes and not one drip.

The reason I ask is that I was just at the dealer a couple of weeks ago for another issue (warranty-related) and the service manager looked and stated that there were NO TSBs for my vehicle, and this thread is WAY older than my visit.

3. The TSBs apply to 2011-2012 JKs most notably those 2012s built before November 2011 but that doesn't mean others are fine. The TSB was released in Jan '12

I don't have any reason to distrust this dealership because they've always treated me well and typically go out of their way for me -- but I don't have any special reason to trust them, either. That's why I was asking. My thought was that some part change was made mid-year and that my very late 2012 build (May 31, 2012) may have had the new parts installed at the factory.
