Lund Genesis Trifold Issue

[calebbender]

I recently purchased a Genesis trifold cover. It installed very easily and looks nice. However, when I drive down the road, it seems to balloon up as if air is getting under the cover and trying to lift it up. I'm curious if anyone else has had this problem or has suggestions on how to fix it.

 

Thanks

its probably not air getting under it, but the air passing over it is sucking it up. it might be normal, just loose material..

Welcome to the site Caleb Bmart is correct--as you go down the road, the low pressure area created above the bed is "pulling" the cover up. Mine does the same thing. The only time I would be concerned is if you're going to be going on a long trip at high speeds. For example, I drove from Buffalo to Las Vegas averaging about 80 MPH. At those speeds, the billowing of the cover was enough to concern me. About halfway to Nevada, I ended up pulling over and putting a ratchet strap down the middle of the bed from front to back. Would it have been okay without one? Most likely, but be better to be safe than sorry.
