Hitch Mounted Step - BumpStep

BumpStep is a trailer hitch-mounted bumper protector available in two widths: 12" and 24" (BumpStep XL), that defends your truck or SUV against rear end accidents, dents and scratches. Both options are molded from two proprietary resins for added strength and impact resistance.

The base is molded from a sturdy material that resists flexing, while the second layer is a softer, impact absorbing material, lessening the blow caused by minor accidents. You will be happy to have it when that stray grocery cart or hard-to-see fire hydrant shows up!

As a secondary benefit, and as the name implies, BumpStep doubles as a step, helping you reach your vehicle’s roof. BumpStep can support up to 300 lbs., providing you access to a roof rack, bike or kayak, or to wash the roof of your vehicle and brush off snow.

For standard SUVs and trucks, choose regular BumpStep, and for larger vehicles, choose BumpStep XL to protect a greater portion of the vehicle’s bumper.

WeatherTech Direct, LLC warrants that our products will be free from any defects in materials and workmanship for the life of the original purchaser and only for the original vehicle they were installed in. That does not mean that a product that simply and naturally wears out from normal use is a candidate for a warranty replacement or a refund. Like tires, brake pads or the shoes on your feet, everything wears out and when it does, that does not mean you did not receive good value for your money.

We are reasonable people and we believe in true customer satisfaction. We will work with you for a fair resolution to any issue you may have. Fair is defined as being fair to both you the customer and to WeatherTech. We do not charge extra for our products to our vast majority of customers so we can accommodate ridiculous warranty claims by the few. Our decision is final and will consist of either replacement of your product at no charge or charge you a prorated amount for a replacement, meaning we may extend a discount to you to purchase an exact replacement. Our goal is to keep our customers happy for a lifetime and always reach a fair resolution to any issue. Proof of purchase is required.
