The Yakiam KingJoe rack works great. I have 2 beach style bikes and they fit and carry on my care just perfectly with this rack.

I drove cross country with two bikes, pretty much through the worst conditions possible. This rack never loosened or gave me any doubt as to the security of my bikes. It had no problem supporting the extra weight from the ice that caked up on the bikes, and it was a considerable amount of weight.
To the "fatal flaw" review: Give me a break. This rack works great.

This is about the only bike rack that would fit my Ford Escort hatchback. It works fine if you make sure every strap is tight. However, it doesn't instill confidence since it sways slightly on turns and bumps. Also, Florida just passed a law that you can't obscure your rear license plate and this does.

I bought this item from a local bike shop. They mounted it on the car showed us how to Strap the bike on. I did everthing they showed me! Driving down the Highway at 75 Mph Look up at the mirror in time to see my $640.00 bike fell off and Tumbled everywhere. Traffic swerving to avoid hitting it. My bike is Distroyed. Only had the bike for 33 days. Had the bike rack for less then a day.
What I got out of it A broken bike and a useless bike rack!

***UPDATE***
My wife and I took our two bikes from our home in suburban Washington, DC to Ocean City, Maryland via Rehoboth Beach, Delaware. Total driving time with traffic was about ten hours and about 400 miles. I never went over 65 miles per hour and tried to avoid sharp turns and sudden braking/aceleration. I also stopped at least once per trip to make sure the straps were still tight--which they were. The rack worked like a champion! I am so happy with it--it really does well. I guess I was nervous because it seems the lower base is kind of narrow, but it worked out very well in the end. I've heard that it's not a good idea to leave the rack on your car when not carrying bikes. I wonder what the sun's UV rays do to the straps over time, too. And how would the straps perform if wet? I can't imagine I'd want to try driving to the beach with this rack in the rain, but I cannot say for sure. Over all--solid.
(Original Review Below)
After searching high and low for weeks, I finally found a bike rack that fits my car. I strapped it on this weekend and was able to shake my whole car just by pushing and pulling vigorously on the bike rack itself--the rack didn't budge and the straps remained tight. I'll update my review if I see any problems in the future, but for now my assessment is that the rack is solid.
