I've had a Leer 122 shell on my tacoma for almost a year. It looks like this:
The shell is great except that it leaks. It rains a lot here so that's a big problem. The leaks are all along the rails where the shell attaches to the bed. I've taken it back 4 times now to the dealer, and each time they've tried to fix it but never really succeeded. They seem genuinely confused as to why it's leaking. Last time it looked like this after a big rain:
And after they worked on it the leak went down to this:
My question is, what should I do now? They seem unable to fix the problem. Is it possible to get a canopy to completely stop leaking? I suspect that if I were anywhere else in the country a leak like this wouldn't even be noticeable, because during brief heavy rain it is fine. It's the two days of steady Northwest winter rain that makes it start leaking.
I've also looked at other canopies, but it seems like there aren't any others that have both the height and the sliding windoors like the leer. This leak is driving me crazy since I live in the back full time. Any advice would be much appreciated! Thanks!
