Has WeatherTech lost its touch?

[eTruckGear]

If you need any accessories, would love to help. We have couple of toys for you at www.eTruckGear.com and offer honest service ( with 100 % positive Amazon feedback we try hard to be there for the customer)

Stop by and take a look. Don't like Weathertech? We have Husky or Maxliner. Will be glad to help.

I got huskys for the wifes car 2013 Mazda CX5 and fit perfect, nice and thick. I had heard people complain about WT prior to ordering. Had full intention to get huskys in my '15 CC Silvy, found a slightly used set for $75 and fits perfect and again are nice and thick. Will stick with huskys unless they cheap out. I know someone who has a contact at WT in Chi town and its under $5 a set to make

I was all set for WTs in my truck but after reading and seeing the pics of the WTs I've decided to go Husky. I've not heard anything bad about them. Seems like WT got a bit greedy after being "the name" in floor mats and has decided to start cutting corners.

 

They say there are two ways to raise revenue on a product, sell more or cut costs. Looks like they chose the later.

 

Also, if anyone has an impression of the X-acts vs the weather beater let me know. I live in snowy new england and hunt in the fall so I'd like something that can take the abuse without worry. Husky isn't super clear the difference between the two as they seem very similar.

I think you are making the right choice, Nick. I'm extremely dissapointed in my Weather Techs I purchased a few months ago. The back single piece mat is "ok" and not curling up on the edges like the drivers side is for me. Sadly, I think I'll try to velcro the parts that are curling a bit to get me by for another year or so and then I'll for sure replace em with Husky's.

Moved my Husky Xact Fits and rear underseat storage from my 2014 CC to my new 2016 Denali. I had checked into the WT's and did not like the hard plastic feel the Husky is pliable and heavy weight. I did not have a second thought about moving my 2 1/2 year old used mats into my new Denali they still look new after 2 1/2years and fit perfectly. keep up the good work Husky liners

My WT mats were showing wear and the rubber coating was peeling off after less than 3 months.... They sent me new ones so we'll see how these hold up. She said they were aware of the issues already for the 14 Silverado mats. Bad batches.

If it is the cast of bad batches it makes me think they are outsourcing or their QC is slipping. Personally I find it unlikely that this is only affecting the GM models from 14+. I haven't spent any time on the ford or ram forums but I would assume QC would notice that a group of mats are now much thinner and don't conform as well across just GM trucks. However, if it has been a change across the entire product line it would make sense that it's "missed".

I have WT n wouldn't buy them again, they curl like crazy, where's the quality control at.

I ordered WT window deflectors for my '16 crew cab. The rears don't fit right. If I roll the window down, the dang things slide down. So I emailed. They sent me a roll of double sided tape. I was sure that would fix it. Oh hell no.

 

The $ they spend on advertising looks good though.

 

No doubt the quality has obviously declined. Should they be monitoring this forum and find a way to ID me, they'd see that I have ordered at least six or seven sets of these for different vehicles.

You may not have the clips installed right. I have WT window deflectors and both front and rear fit right. The rears on mine actually fit a little tighter than the front.

I had them in my '07 Escalade ESV. Not impressed then, I remember the passenger side never fit and was constantly coming out of the car with my passengers. Then the drivers side started sliding around. I contact WT, they sent me two new ones for my front seats- and they were crap too. I'd never buy WT again after that experience.

Did you have to send them pictures or proof of purchase thought you had them before they sent you new ones

Pictures and the stamped info on the bottom of the mats. They sent me new ones also.

 

Fitment issue - take back to where they were purchased.

 

Quality control issue - contact weathertech directly for replacements.

That's what I was told on the phone.

I have WT in my Cruze and they fit like crap. The ones in my Silverado fit really good. Eventually I want to replace the WT in my Cruze with Husky Liners.

The Husky liners in my Cruze don't fit well either. There is a gap between the liner and the door lip. Plus the hold down holes don't fit the pegs in the floor unless you lubricate them and press really hard.

Weird... I got mine on my 2016 sierra and they fit real well.

 

Same for my 2014 Silverado that i traded in..i don't buy other brands because ive had such good luck with WT.... Guess im just lucky
