* Damage the stitching and seams: The force of the water can push water into the seams, potentially causing damage over time.
* Wreck the fabric: Repeated exposure to high-pressure water can weaken the fabric of the soft top, leading to premature wear and tear.
* Cause leaks: Water might force its way into areas it shouldn't, leading to leaks later on.
It's much safer to hand wash a soft top Jeep or use a low-pressure self-service car wash. Always check the carwash's signage for specific warnings about convertible or soft-top vehicles before attempting to use it.
