Jeep Blinker Fluid works perfect in map lights that leak. Just refill as necessary…

The windshield was probably replaced and not sealed completely. When the top of the windshield leaks the water runs along the headliner and drips from the map lights.

Clogged sunroof drains can also result in water dripping from the headliner.
