Summary
Aftermarket pickup truck over-the-rail bedliners manufactured for installation on 1999-2004 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra pickup trucks. The toggle wing assembly used to attach the bedliner to the truck bed is not engaging fully in the stake pocket of the pickup truck.
Actions
Durakon will issue a press release in attempt to notify customers that could have purchased the defective bedliner. If you purchased either a Durakon Allstar or Patriot Overrail bedliner since August 1, 2003, for 1999 to 2004 Chevrolet Silverado or GMC Sierra trucks, or purchased one of these pickup trucks with either brand bedliner already installed, you should return to an authorized Durakon dealer so that the bedliner can be inspected and, if necessary, repaired with a newly designed toggle wing fastening system, or if required, replaced with a new bedliner free of charge. Please call the Durakon hotline at 1-800-933-4200 to find the nearest authorized Durakon dealer.
