Consumer Description

THIS VEHICLE HAS A SLIDER ROOF. THE ELECTRICAL PART WORKS FINE (TRUTH IS I ONLY USED THE ROOF A HANDFUL OF TIMES) BUT SOMEHOW -I BELIEVE FROM A CAR WASH THE SLIDER ROOF CAME OFF TRACK. I WAS TOLD BY JEEP THAT THE ONLY WAY TO FIX THE ISSUE IS TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE ROOF. MY WARRANTY WILL NOT COVER IT SINCE THE ELECTRICAL PART STILL WORKS. JEEP WOULD ONLY FIX IT FOR $3,000. THE CAR IS NOT WORTH FIXING FOR THAT MUCH MONEY. WHEN I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AIR GOT CAUGHT UP UNDER THE SOFT ROOF AND STARTED TO OPEN I HAD TO PULL OVER AND MANUALLY PULL IT CLOSED. I HAVE A HUGE FEAR THAT IT IS GOING TO BLOW OFF. THE SLIDER ROOF IS A TERRIBLE DESIGN AND COULD CAUSE A MAJOR PROBLEM WHEN THE ENTIRE ROOF BLOWS OFF DUE TO THIS DESIGN.
