Trying to install a tonneau cover and realized that tailgate won’t close on drivers side because it looks to be sitting too high relative to bed rail (that the cover rail attaches to).

Can I adjust heigh of tailgate without just bending the tonneau cover rail upward? Passenger side is fine.

Could this be covered by the warranty?
Mine is doing the same. I also get a Tailgate Ajar light on my dash and have to go and push it hard with my hands. The dealership is going to fix this. We will see!!

Luckily, this can't just be an EV issue.

Your left side rail needs to be moved slightly forward.
