Took them over 8 hours to install and botched the job. Waited at the dealership for 3 hours, at the 2 hour mark the SA told me they were just tightening everything down and it'll be out soon. After 3 hours she finally says they need it for longer and comp me a rental. At 4:30pm she calls & doesn't know when it'll be done, "some time tomorrow" she thinks. Got a little upset at her and told her if it can't be finished tonight, take it off because I need the truck. Managed to get it done by 5:30pm. When I pick it up, she says they had to drop the whole headliner which is why it took so long & the installation guide is in the glove box (I figured this was a passive aggressive comment like go read it yourself, which I had & it says 2 hours but they removed that page).
Problem 1: Zip tied the wiring before the connector so it can't be folded back. Easy enough to fix, but shows a lack of attention.
Problem 2: They installed the 3rd brake light through the window panel. This makes the whole thing useless as the window can't be removed. If it's moved to where it should be, it will leak.
Problem 3: It doesn't look like it's fitted correctly so there's a huge gap & they cut the rubber flap so it's just going to leak.
Problem 3.b: Also the instructions show that wire being routed through the bed not over.
Problem 4: they didn't reconnect the defroster, again easy fix but shows lack of attention.
Problem 5: They cut the boot instead of fishing the wires through. This doesn't affect the topper, but does show lack of care or attention when following the directions. Also since the topper folds, these may rip completely over time.
Problem 6: It wasn't properly secured, the drivers front corner wasn't clipped over neither was the passenger rear nor was it clipped around the crossbars only one of the bars had the Velcro around it.
Problem 7: Forgot to include the chips in the tailgate that's down to the metal.
I have little patience for people who blatantly don't know what they're doing and lie throughout the process, so my fiancé will be dealing with the dealership to get this resolved. But we're going to be asking for the whole unit to be replaced, if not a refund and removal. I would also like to see where the wire is pulled through the interior because at this point I don't trust it was done correctly either.
