leaky roof brought it in twice, the second time after they told me it was fixed, i got drops coming out before i even left the dealer lot.

the side mirrors seem to have some reservoir where soapy water accumulates and doesn't leave until after i drive over 30mph at which point it leaves a splatter trail down the sides of the doors, had that fixed and their fix did nothing.

when i open the door while it's running, the water runner runs the water directly on top of an interior portion of the place where the door meets the frame.

At 50 miles, my check engine light came on. The factory neglected to connect a fuel injector. At 1500 miles, my power steering pump sprang a BIG leak. And I have the JK leak in the hardtop.

I've had to have my MyGig replaced and my hood latches. There's a really annoying squeak in the A Pillar that just started the other day too, but I'm sure it'll be easy for me to fix. It only does it when its really cold out.

I haven't even hit 2000 miles yet.

'08 JK Unlimited Rubicon 6 speed freedom top. My top doesn't leak a drop though.
