Coming up on three years with my X2 and no problems whatsoever. Love its versatility.

How long of a period of time? a week? a month?

I have the X4 and so far so good. I had the generation before the X2 on my Ram and the rubber trim pulled away like the pictures above.

Well, only had the truck for 2 years, and the first one I got within the first couple of weeks of ownership.... So, maybe 1.5 years with first, and less than 6 months on second before it happened again....

No problems with my X2, but I don't leave it rolled up for long periods.

I'm in Florida and my truck stays outside so take this as an extreme example of hot, sunny weather exposure. After 2 years, the corner material has peeled away, the logo plate has fallen off (wouldn't have thought of that if another post hadn't mentioned it) and the biggest issue I have is that the felt on the underside came apart from the aluminum and just dangled. I believe the heat from the sun melted the glue. I loved the idea of the revolver X2 but functionally, I would not buy another one. Hopefully the X4 fixes these issues.

I've had an X4 on my truck for about a month and so far I am very disappointed. The rubber seals on either side of the cover still have ripples in them and have not flattened out like the manual said they would. I then tried the heat gun method that the manual said to use and discovered the adhesive that holds the seals down was failing in the front and back of the cover. The ripples are not only annoying aesthetically but are also allowing water in the bed.

I've opened up a ticket with Real Truck (where I bought it) and they are handling the issue with Bak for me. So far, Bak is only willing to send me new seals which isn't an acceptable solution to a $800 cover leaking in less than a month.

Really wish I had just gone with an Access cover like my old truck. They sent me a brand new cover (minus hardware) for practically nothing after mine ripped. It never leaked either.
