Interior water leaking 2003 Wrangler sport bought recently.
I have only had the jeep two weeks or so. I have not been in it to use it in several days the past two days we had a lot of rain and it one point we had about six hours of hard driving rain and sideways wind
Not sure if that may have been the cause, but today when I get in the jeep both seats were soaking wet and I could not see where the water came from.
Does anyone have any idea I plan on looking all the gaskets over around the doors tomorrow in the daylight
 
If your seats are wet, it definitely came in from around the doors or the windshield header. I’m sure heavy winds contributed also. Have someone spray a hose on your Jeep while you sit inside.
 
IF you determine you need to replace the door seals; the Mopar OEM PN for drivers is (05017463AH) and passengers is (05017462AH).
I have the drivers side replacement in a box and recently ordered the passenger side.
For as much as it rains in Jax I decided it was time to replace mine.
 
These things leak from everywhere. The rear window, the doors, the top of the windshield. Then the amount of condensation you get from the roof is ridiculous. The condensation alone soaks my seats. Welcome to owning a TJ. Once you spend an astronomical amount of time, money, and effort fixing all of it's flaws, you'll have a terrible daily driver that will run forever and be an amazing offroad vehicle.

I actually wondered that when I noticed that the inside of the of the roof was very wet
I wonder why that is
Possibly because it’s not insulated
