    Anyone else having issues with the rubber strips on the fold down seats? This actually started peeling about 3 months from when I bought it.
    I asked the dealer to look at it when it was getting its 5k mile service. But they wanted to keep it all day in order to "look" into it.
    I haven't taken it back since I havent needed service. The strip wont stay down no matter what, keeps curling up.

    I know I can probably fix it with double sided tape, but just wondering if anyone has gotten the dealer to replace it.

    Wow, no. No issues here. Looks like that could be solved with proper application of a hair dryer and some Krazyglue/Epoxy.

    I'm not even sure that I have the rubber strips on my covers... Hmmmm :confused: Maybe it came after 06.

    If I do then I haven't had any problems with them.

    I don't have a problem w/mine. I think that's due to purchasing a husky liner for the back area of the cab. I think it was my 1st purchase after I brought the truck home. Use some gorilla glue on that and the get a husky liner. They are great.

    I had one come loose. I had a big box of frozen goods on top of the rubber strip though and when I pulled the box off a bit of the strip came with. After it warmed back up a bit it stuck right back on and no problems since.
