2026 Jeep JK 2-Door Sky One-Touch Leaking at Passenger Door — Expert Fix

Hi Addis,

Thanks for reaching out.

The leaking you’re experiencing at the passenger door during car washes on
your Jeep with the Sky One-Touch roof is a very common issue on these
vehicles.

Car washes tend to expose the weak points in the factory sealing design
because the high-pressure water forces its way into areas that normal
rainfall may not.

Unlike most vehicles on the road today, Jeep Wranglers do not have a proper
body-side sealing surface. Instead, the door seals are trying to compress
directly against painted metal. Since painted metal is not a consistent
sealing surface, small gaps can develop around the upper passenger door and
A-pillar area, allowing pressurized water to enter during washing.

With the Sky One-Touch setup, the roof structure and door frame transitions
can place even more emphasis on the upper door sealing areas, making those
locations especially sensitive to water intrusion.

Even though the factory seals may appear to be in good condition, the issue
is usually not the seals themselves—it’s the lack of a proper gasketed
sealing surface for them to compress against.

The most effective long-term solution is adding a factory-specific Jeep
leak fix kit with body-side weatherstripping. This creates the missing
sealing surface the factory design lacks, allowing the door seals to
compress evenly and consistently. Once installed, it eliminates the gaps
and resolves the water intrusion issue at its source.

Below is a link to the leak fix kit that will solve your issues.

If you have any additional questions, feel free to reply to this email or
contact me directly.

Best regards,
Tony
