Side step problems

Anyone else have these issues with the pads on your side steps? They are twisting and scratching the metal... expecting them to just break out eventually. 2017 CCSB FX4 XLT Premium

I haven't noticed mine do that. I would go take them in while under warranty and have them fixed though.

That does look right to me. How long have you had your truck? That looks like something you should take up with your dealer.

Take it to dealer. That is warranty all day long. You don't want to replace those boards on your dime.

No problems with mine, but I've only had it 2 weeks. Mine are all tight.
