Can you take a soft top jeep through touch less carwash?

Generally, no, you should not take a soft top Jeep through a touchless carwash. While touchless washes avoid the brushes that can damage a soft top, the high-pressure water jets can still potentially:

* 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.
