The plastic binding straps (for mounting the bikes) on this rack scratch and damage the paint job and furthermore, do not offer sufficiently tight way to secure the bikes. This makes the bikes wobble and bounce on the road and increases the potential to damage. Very, very bad design by some person who obviously does not bike or use this product. Save your money and get the Thule -- any of the Thule's have rubberized straps that won't kill the paint job and at the same time offer a tighter grip on the bikes.

Saris Bones RS 3-Bike Trunk Mount Rack I bought the RS-3 as our new Passat 3.6 4-motion would not allow a hitch mount. I was very concerned about stability of the rack, the attached bikes and the finish/paintwork of the car. In a word (or so) no problems. The 2 mountain bikes we carry are rock steady on the rack, the rack is rock solid on the car and the paint hasn't suffered at all.
I recommend a thorough reading and understanding of the instructions and then a rereading and "dry mounting run". Given you mount the carrier correctly, it's a superior product worth the superior price. Make sure that the rack fasteners and cups are clean as should be the trunk lid of the car. It also works very well on my wife's M3.

Never had to even look at the instructions for this bike rack; I had watched the demo a couple of times, and the rack installed exactly as the video had shown. This is a rock-solid bike rack, and installation/removal couldn't be more of a breeze -- 30 seconds to one minute. For me, this rack is well worth the money. I have carried two bikes on it with no problems at all, but as another person stated in their review, the bikes do need their front wheel/handlebars secured so they don't move around ("yes/no" movement). I think this is a normal situation when a bike is suspended and moving on anything; I just use a small nylon harness to loop through the bike wheel and the bike itself to correct this "problem". The bikes are extremely secure, and for the first time, I don't worry at all about them falling off. Hands down, this is the ultimate in bike transport if you are going to use a trunk mount rack.

I purchased this rack based on the reviews and it works as promised. The install went well and the rack fits secure to the back of my car. There is plenty of adjustment.
The guy from NC should use his head before writing a negative review about this rack. The rack comes locked from the factory and if you unlock each side, the straps release and work perfectly.
Great rack!

I had been looking for a trunk rack for a while, I had a Thule rack that I used last summer for a trip to Nova Scotia that was horrible. I almost lost the bikes (only 2) 4 times, and it was very difficult to get the straps to stay tight. I have only used this rack a couple of times so far, but I love it. It is easy to apply to the trunk, no extra straps to fight with, and best of all it actually held my bike in place without any slipping, or even much bouncing at all even at highway speeds. I can't wait to travel with my bike this summer! I highly recommend this rack.
