Default Windshield Leak Question?

Just picked up my brand new Rubi last night, and I'm loving it. I have searched the forums and can't find anyone else with this question, but my windshield is leaking right in front of the steering wheel at the base of the windshield. It had a little water in it from washing and when I hit about 45mph water sprayed up onto the dash. Haven't driven it in the rain yet. Honestly, I know its a jeep and I'm fine with some leaks and noise (thats part of what makes it great). Its just a little annoying to have this loud leaking sound and draft right in my face while I'm driving. Just wondering if anyone else has had this problem or knows of some kind of apoxy or weather stripping solution to fix it?

Hard to say, but its definitely a warranty issue - take it in and have it fixed.

I think the JK windshields are basically glued in place like most others these days. Sounds like you got a bad install at the factory. Probably needs to have the glass removed and re-installed correctly. Definately a dealer warranty issue.

Thanks for the replys. I figured I would end up calling the dealer Monday.
