| Description of the problem | During high winds in the riverside,california area the bed liner of my 2001 nissan frontier was sucked from the bed of the truck. Inside of the bed at the time were personal items that were also ejected with the bed liner. This truck was purchased brand new only 9 months earlier and the bed liner was factory installed and was included in the truck accessory package. The bed liner was destroyed along with the personal items. Although there is no confirmation it appears there could be one fatality and damage to other vehicles including my own although minor, include, scratches. *jb |
