After two trips to the Mount Dora Jeep dealership where , as they put it, they are the Jeep service experts I finally went on KZbin and found a video showing how to fix it yourself so here is my video showing just how easy it is.

THANK YOU so much Eric Schreier. I have a 2006 Jeep Commander and this happened every time it rained. I followed your instructions and found that the blue drainage tube had actually pulled up from the black rubber insert on the floorboards on both sides. It was draining directly under the carpets and not through the floor at all. So I cut the tips as you instructed and inserted them back in. Now I'm waiting for the carpets to dry completely and testing it with a cup of water to make sure they drain properly before putting all the plastic panels back. This has been a frustrating problem and I understand there is a class action lawsuit against Jeep for this design flaw. Much appreciation for your great video and consideration for us Jeep owners in posting it!

Thank you immensely! After trying other suggested fixes on YT (snaking it out, compressed air, soap/water) I had no luck. Spent couple hours on it and gave up. Your video came up in my list later that day and I just thought this looks too easy. And sure enough it was super easy! Oh, and my vehicle is a 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee and fix is nearly identical. I thought I was going to have to take it in to get fixed. You saved me a few hundred bucks! And no mare worries about taking it into the car wash! Thanks again!

I had this problem with my commander too. My local dealer didn't tell me about these tubes, they tried to blame the door seals. Finally looked up jeep forums and this sunroof problem was the first thing I found. Thanks for letting everyone know.

This is the best explanation of the problem and remedy on KZbin. It took me twenty minutes and I fixed both of the tube nipples. Thanks, it's a better solution than blowing out the crud with compressed air.

Thank you! Just performed this simple repair. I heard "sloshing" above my head while I was driving. I knew something wasn't right...opened the sunroof and saw a pool of water. Upon pulling out the plastic panels and pulling back the carpet, there was plenty of moisture. Again, thank you!!!!

Great video. For real you are the only one with this fix. I'm in ny & it snowed & I had a block of ice covering my sunroof. I'm driving & next thing I know I hear a sound like someone pouring water into a glass & water starts leaking out the arm bars on the driver & passenger side. Next it starts leaking directly from the overhead panel where the sunglass case is at. I pulled over & immediately removed all the ice off the sunroof. The ice probably melted to fast & backed up the line. This was my second incident. The first was a year ago when we had a large downfall of rain & water was leaking from all over the place. Thank you for posting this.

Good job Eric. Seems strange that some of the dealers have no knowledge of these common Commander issues. Maybe they should have KZbin access to their service bays! Another common problem is the interior door handle cracking. If your Commander is plagued with the weak interior door handles check out DenLors Commander Door Handle Installation video. We've saved Jeep owners a lot of money over replacing the entire door panels.

Thank you Eric for sharing this video and your knowledge. We followed your very good instructions and our problem is now fixed. We have two 2007 Jeep Commanders and it was only doing this to one of them on the driver side. We have been scratching our heads for years and have taken it in to Jeep dealers and car shops without getting our problem fixed. This was almost too easy-and what a strange design or did they just forget to pull the plug? LOL! Thanks again!!

@chestercopperpots3926 жыл бұрын
Thank you for posting this. Normally I wouldn't get on a social website or chat room feedback website etc. to voice my frustration in a way that would offend too many people. But I want to tell you all a story about my experience with my 2006 Jeep Commander. Once upon a time I stumbled into a local dealership and decided to purchase a vehicle. I chose a used 2006 Jeep commander. It was the first vehicle I ever purchased through a dealership. After taking it home for the night to try it out, I was happy with it and it seemed like a good car. It had 80k on it at the time and had not been in any accidents. So, after about a month of having it.. I generally park in a garage, I left it outside overnight. It must of rained all night because when I went to go to work the next day, there had to have been 4 inches of water in my drivers side door. I did not own a shop vac at the time so I took it down to the local car wash, feet suspended high on the pedal and vacuumed it out. I googled them and found this was an issue. That was in 2010. Now, on to more from this BS first year model commander. If you google an issue, I have had it, EVERY issue.. there is not one online that I didn't have. So, first was the water, followed by the electrical issues, then the manifold bolts breaking and onto the stereo recant screen working when it wanes, mostly during the winter? Other issues, front differential shot, interior door handles breaking off, EGR valve failure twice and throwing bad codes.. the drivers side window will not go up and down with any door open and the passenger window will not move regardless. If anyone has any advice on that, I'd be grateful. All I want to say is, I will never buy a POS Jeep, Chrysler product again and I will guarantee my kids won't either. This company could give a shit less after you bought the car. The builders from upper design to the assembly line should be damned to hell. I wish nothing but fire and fury to them for creating such a piece of shit. I've talked to several Commander owners just to hear their nightmares. What a pity to think that these manufacturers would build a quality product. F them and the horse they rode in on. Sorry, my rant is over

Get this.....Took my 2006 commander to dodge dealership in my town where I live.The ignition would stick really bad but run perfect after that.And it did leak at that time. They said they could not replace the ignition or re key it.So I took it to a bigger dealer ship in the next town. It started right up. ran PERFECT all the way there. But the fan on the defrost would not come on.They tell me they do not fix leaks and we HAVE to take our car to their collision department. Collision department tells us it will cost "alot" to do the work. I look on line and see this video Thank God. It was having electrical issues because of the moisture.It dries out and runs perfect. So I am going to try doing this my self.Thank you for posting this! After the leak is fixed I am taking it to a shade tree mechanic and get my fan fixed.

I followed this fix, used an airline from the bottom, keep the sunroof closed or the dirt and water ends up in the cabin. do not try blowing from the sunroof area, this only causes more blockages as most of the dirt is in the sun roof channel, just make sure you clean away the debris from the drain holes. Thanks, its so quick and easy.

Thanks a lot mate! You really helped! I have been to different car services but none of them could help me with this bloody leaking sunroof. I heard that it is not possible to fix it, or that I need to dismount all the insides to get it fixed and that it can be time consuming and expensive. After all I found your tip ... and now the water runs like in a waterfall :D. Apart from cutting these rubber things I also had to use a screwdriver to unclog a blue cable as a lot of dust/mud got stuck at the end of it, blocking its output. Anyway - now everything runs smothly :) BTW: Who the hell disliked this video? Probably jealous guys from your Jeep dealership ;)

I couldn't believe how restricted the fittings the hose ended in were, nor the amount of gunk in there that had accumulated. Can't figure out why they didn't just leave it wide open at the end. It's not like it allows anything into the interior of the car.

For anyone still having issues, there are drains in the rear of the sunroof as well. The rear drains have tubes that go back behind the rear doors in the C pillar. The rubber grommet is more difficult to get to but it is possible. If your hoses are old then they might be leaking. Best to replace the plastic OEM drain hoses with 3/8" ID vinyl tubing. You may need about 8 3/8" brass barbed fittings as well to fit the hoses to both ends, and just delete that red piece of garbage.
