Anyone have this happen?

So my bed is ripping apart from the frame mount. This is on the drivers side mount by the gas tank fill. It’s gotten bad enough to start pushing up the bed. Just noticed it yesterday. I’m going to take it to the dealer as soon as I have some free time, and really hoping they do something about it. I haven’t heard of anyone having this problem especially on a truck that’s barely 2 years old.

 

That sucks. I hope the dealers helps you out. Keep us posted

 

Dang, I haven't seen that before. Hopefully Toyota does something about it.

 

WTF?

 

That sucks! I hope the local dealer takes care of that for you. Good luck and keep us posted.

 

Hope Toyota takes care of that for you. I’m interested to see what they say. Didn’t even know that could happen.

 

wow that is not good.... have you had any major hauling or towing? rear ended or accidents?

 

Crazy. Never seen that before on a newer truck.
Hope Toyota gets you a new bed!

 

That damage is really odd and unusual. Never heard of this or seen anything similar. Have you had any problems with the truck? Assuming you are the original owner, have you hauled anything different, heavy, or been in any accident?

 

No no and no.

 

No hauling, yes first owner. No accidents. I Offroad it but so does everyone else I know with a tundra. Never seen the issue

 

That’s a bummer

 

What were you doing that made you notice it!

 

Yeah mine is doing the same thing.

 

That sucks hope they fix it for you.
It’s from all that lifting and flexing bro.

 

Craig aren’t you just getting stress cracks? My bed is literally coming off the front drivers mount. The bed is sitting like 1.5” lower in the front corner. It’s jacked

 

No the floor of the bed is coming apart.

 

I know what I am doing when the sun comes up tomorrow. Crawling under my truck and looking for weird shit. Lol

Hope it gets fixed.

 

I have no idea if you guys run raised one piece RTT racks, but they do not flex. Our whole rear is like spaghetti, when you put a no flex rack on the bed, damage under like yours can happen. I’ve installed tons of ladder racks, and ones that limited flex beat the snot out of the beds.

 

I use bed bars. I did have a one piece rack, but ditched that a while back well before this happened

 

seems like the common denominator is SGU bad-ass-ery

 

Any chance your “light off road” usage could’ve contributed?

 

Well i just crawled under my truck all is good I tend to beat the shit out of it with fishing and towing the camper but i wouldn't say off road. I would be trading mine in for a new one if it were mine.

 

That's the plan. If Toyota denies the claim, very next thing I'm doing is calling the shop to get the frame boxed and bed reinforced. Even if Toyota does fix the issue, boxing the frame is next on the list of things to do

 

You're right. I should trade in a truck with well over $20K in upgrades that I'd eat the cost of because there's an issue with my bed.

 

I didn't realize....let me rephrase that for you if it were my really stock 2016 tundra i would trade it in. Better now?

 

As far as I know, and what I'm telling Toyota, my truck has never been off-road. So I'm not sure what you could be talking about.

 

Yikes! Need to check into, thanks for sharing
