Quality iz Job 1.

You're not alone. Many, many trucks have been taken back to dealer for bed realignment....very common.

what he said.

It is very common and easy to fix. It is misaligned, that's all.

The holes in the bed are quite a bit larger than the bolts, so the location of the bed on the frame varies a lot from truck to truck. Get the right Torx bit to loosen the bed bolts, move it around to where you like it and tighten the bolts.

I wouldn't let a dealer adjust mine. Too many dealer bent, scratched, put 20miles on and there is rubber in the wheelwells, lost my truck threads for me.
I only use them when it is impossible to avoid it.
It is only 6 bolts, just loosen them and push it around till it looks even.

Now that I think about it, it is something to just do at home. I ended up with an ink pen stripe up the side of driver's seat from write-up guy getting in the truck with an ink pen in his pocket......Had to take truck back the second time to get that removed.
