Does anyone else's leak this bad? Looks like it's coming in where the strap's bracket is screwed in.

Unfortunately I threw the box away, so it might be too late to exchange for an MX4
I just got Solid Fold 2.0 dealer installed on my 2016 f150 and it leaks just like your does - water drips from the driver side strap. I think leak is actually through the hinge. It may be due to improper installation. Look at the picture how tail panel sits uneven....

That one looks messed up. It shouldn't sit like that. You could contact extang and see what they say. Most parts with these seem replaceable.

Mine now leaks through where the pull attachment is at the bed side. I'm not worried about it, I mostly like the cover to keep the leaves out and to avoid wood getting wet or having to strap some things down.

As the last member posted, it definitely should not be sitting up angled like that. I would have it reinstalled to see if that makes a difference. I have worked with the Solid Fold 2.0 over the last couple of years and usually have no issues. In fact, one of my family members has had one on their truck for a while now and not experienced any issues.
