(More customer reviews)I purchased the kayak carrier with the intention of using it on my wife's matrix. We have the Thule aftermarket rack (the factory roof rails start too far back on the roof to be of any use) and when I put the carriers on the load bars the one on the front bar was tilted forward and the one on the back bar was tilted back. This was due the fact the the thule bars were not level, a fault of the thule design. There is no adjustment on the carriers to correct for this. I ended up using the carriers on my Mazda 3 which also has an aftermarket thule rack. This time the bars were level and the carriers both were level. No problem putting the kayak on and securing it.
I would recommend this product, just make sure your load bars are level, not a problem for yakima racks.
