Hey all,

Thought i would pass this along, if you have the Leer HFM350M folding tonneau and your getting a rattle sound at highway speeds of 70+ MPH that sounds like a pressure cooker going off, It could be the safety straps that attach from the cover to the frame rail bracket. in my case the hooks were rattling on the brackets since they fit fairly loose. since I was at a I-75 rest stop when figuring this out I just attached the straps to the front bed tie down hooks and the rattling stopped.

Good to know. Haven't had that problem yet, but I love this cover. Ran thru a carwash and it's still dry. No stupid drilling for drains. Very happy with what LEER did.
