Re: Pad Exploded ...

Not as fast as the pad can get hot, I just dont see air being able to go through the pad as fast as it can heat up. That sucks that it was your only small pad, just gives you an excuse to spend some more money with AG.

Im almost hesitant to order more of them, fearing that the same thing will happen, and next time, I may not be so lucky

Re: Pad Exploded ...

LOL ^ I agree. I would be willing to bet that wont happen with a new pad. I hate to laugh but just the thought of that pad flying off and up on top of your roof is funny! Thats like something from a movie or funny tv show like Tim Taylor on Tool Time! I am glad it didnt hit your paint and scratch it- I know you love that truck like I love my Z/28. Shoot Meghan a PM and let her know what happened- they have great customer service and I am sure they will send ya a new pad.

Hey! Meghan forwarded your message my way hoping that I would have an answer. Exploding pads is not a common occurence and is new to us so I don't have any answers at the present time. Any way you could get the evidence from the top of the roof and send me a picture?

Also, send me a PM with your name, address and order number so I can send you a replacement.

Dwayne

Re: Pad Exploded ...

If you are wanting a replacement try the pads that you can get for cyclos. I have a set of them and I like them much better than the pad you had a problem with.
