Q: I purchased a Thule rack system little over 2 years ago and I noticed that the Thule Tracker II feet I have are very loose on the pin. Is this normal? It seems to be getting worse, too. At first it was just one set about a year ago, now the other 2 are just as wobbly. They seem very loose on the pins and rock forward and backward very easily, even though they are locked on. Shouldn’t they fit snug and tight?? I am concerned they will come loose and I will lose my rack AND my gear!Is there anything you can do for this?
A: They do tend to loosen a bit over time. Are they loose with the bar on them? If so you probably need to tighten the bolt that applies pressure to the bar itself, that should stop some of the wobble. I have never seen or heard of one releasing. They are meant to have some degree of adjustability to them. As long as you cannot pull them off without engaging the release button you should be fine.
