Some Jeep Wrangler owners report experiencing cracking issues at the seam of corner panels, particularly in areas like the rear quarter panel seam and rocker panel seams. This common problem can be attributed to factors such as wear and tear, stress on the panels, or material quality. While some owners have found that cracked panels can often be repaired instead of replaced, utilizing materials like plastic weld or black silicone, others have opted to reinforce the damaged areas with mild steel patches for added support. To prevent recurring issues, it is recommended that owners engage in proper maintenance and address any early signs of cracking. Additionally, many owners find value in participating in online forums like the Jeep Wrangler TJ Forum for advice and insights from those who have faced similar challenges.
