My 2007 jeep patriot continues to leak water from the interior. After being into the dealer 3 times in still leaks water from the front interior dome light, left and right front pillars. Water leaking into the car has caused electrical shortages in the sunroof, radio, and switches in the door.

The roof of the vehicle has some serious issues. I've had severe leaks when it rains from the dome light. Chrysler is aware of this issue that is caused by bad drain tubes and poor design. Yet they've only issued tsb's and not a full recall. Water gets all over the dashboard and could cause an electrical fire due to shorting.

Water appears to be leaking through sunroof, with inner dome light filled with water. Potential electrical issue.

Water leaks occur in the jeep patriot (all model years) from the sun roof, a,b & c pillars, the front dome light and rear dome light. The water leak is so heavy that water will fill the void between the actual roof and liner. Water also forces its way into electronic systems, such as the radio and various controls. I am concerned over possible damage to safety systems. Jeep will not repair it out of warranty and has yet to come up with a proper fix. The issue has been documented online by numerous owners, including youtube videos and complaints on http://www.jeeppatriot.com/forum/tags.php?tag=leak.
