Thule Passage Trunk Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - Hanging Style
Great Service. I ordered a bike rack. The package was damaged during shipment and a few small parts were missing- they shipped out the missing parts quickly and with no hassle. I would definitely recommend this company to others.
Works as expected coming from Thule. Etrailer is great to deal with. Only problem is side clips have to hook on window glass on VW sports wagon.

Saris Bones 2 Bike Rack - Trunk Mount - Adjustable Arms
While getting a bike rack for a sports car isn't ideal, I really wanted to transfer my bike with my own car instead of borrowing my friend's pickup truck. After hours of trying to find a bike rack that would be good for my 07 Mustang, I decided to give this one a try and I gotta say, it has been pretty good so far. It fits very well over the factory spoiler. One of my biggest concerns I was worried about when ordering a rack for my Mustang was ruining the paint, but the feet on the legs haven't left one scratch. I have used this to transfer my bike at freeway speeds (up to 80 mph) on car rides that typically last an hour and my bike was perfectly secure throughout each ride. For extra security, I wrapped both bike wheels with a ratchet strap so the wheels and pedals wouldn't shift in transit. So far, I am very pleased with this bike rack for the price and quality. I would highly recommend this if you want a rack that is affordable and durable.
Seemingly well-constructed and supported bike rack. It fits my 2018 Toyota Camry SE just fine and I haven't had any issues with sway or even feeling my bike while driving. I've only carried one bike on it and have used it a limited number of times, so I cannot speak on durability and longevity. Although you shouldn't open your trunk while the rack is attached, I have been able to do so with no issue (without the bike attached).

Yakima FullBack 3 Bike Rack - Trunk Mount - Adjustable Arms
Performed perfectly on a 140 mile round-trip in my 2017 Acura MDX. It took me a few tries to position the anchors inside the top of the hatch, but I got the hang of it and the rack did not shift at all while driving 50-60 mph on the highway.
After searching for a bike rack for my 2015 Hyundai Sonata, I settled on the Yakima Fullback 3. I initially wanted a roof rack so I could carry my bikes and kayaks, but my options with the panoramic sunroof were limited and expensive. Part of the Sonata trunk lid is plastic so I was very hesitant to use a trunk mounted rack. It seemed that most Sonata owners were using a trunk mount rack, so I placed my order on a Sunday evening. etrailer shipped it the next day and I received the rack on Thursday. It took about 10 minutes to unpack, read the instructions and install it. I put both my mtb and road bike on and went for a test ride. The rack was more stable than the hitch mounted rack I had on my old vehicle, and the best part was it didn't scratch my paint. It keeps the bike pedals far away from my bumper, and it was one of only a few racks that would clear my factory spoiler. It folds up and I can stick it in my trunk while I ride. The only reason for the 4 stars is that the rack is fairly heavy. It would be nice if Yakima could find a way to lighten it up while keeping the rigidity and price where it is now. Otherwise, I'm completely satisfied with the rack and the service from etrailer.

Thule Gateway Pro 2 Bike Rack - Trunk Mount - Adjustable Arms
Exactly as advertised, transported 2 Trek bikes on on the back of my 2016 Toyota Avalon without issue - travelling from Boston MA to Green Bay WI. Outstanding price buying this item as open-box. etrailer's website is the best I could find on the web with name brand racks, automated compatibility vehicle check, and they they shipped overnight.
The delivery was quicker than I expected, but apparently the item was not checked before shipping. There was a key strap missing. I called customer service and they said they would send me a replacement part. If that goes well, I would move my rating to four stars from two.

Thule Gateway Pro 3 Bike Rack - Trunk Mount - Adjustable Arms
Still working great on my Hyundai Elantra sedan! It's used mostly to carry one bike, but have used it with three bikes with no problems. Easy to put on the car, and easy to store it in the car when not in use.
I did my research to make sure this 3 bike rack would fit my car. Unfortunately when it’s properly attached to my Honda Accord, the 3rd bikes petals rub up against my license plate and trunk therefore scratching my paint. Contacted etrailer and sent them pics. Very unhappy that they would suggest that I only use 2 bikes so it doesn’t damage my car. Defeats spending more $ on a 3 bike rack

Saris Trunk Bike Racks Review - 2015 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen
Speaker 1: Today on our 2015 Volkswagen Golf Sportwagon we're going to be test fitting the Saris SuperBones 3 Bike Rack, part number SA802. We already have bike installed on the rack, let's take a closer look and show off some of the features. How the bike attaches to the rack, we'll three points of contact. We're going to have two straps up at the top here and then one off to the side and that's going to serve as an anti-sway cradle to keep the bike from moving too far back and forth and possibly make bike to bike contact. The cradles are stationary and I would like to point out we do have a strap around our front tire here and that's just to keep it from making contact with the vehicle. This does not come with the bike rack, we recommend that you have one though, in case you don't want any contact made there.Let's go ahead and take the bike off and set it aside.
Hollywood Racks Baja Trunk Bike Racks Review - 2015 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen
Speaker 1: Today on our 2015 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen, we're going to be test fitting the Hollywood Racks Baja 2 Bike Rack, part number HRB2. We already have a bike installed on the rack, so let's go ahead and take a closer look and show off some of the features. How the bike actually attaches to the rack, we're going to have three points of contact. We're going to have two straps up at the top here and one off to the side here around our anti-sway cradle to keep the bike from moving too far back and forth. I would like to note that it does not come with the strap that we're using today and this is just to keep the bike tires straight up against here so it doesn't, by accident turn and possibly make contact with the vehicle there as well.The cradles are movable back and forth to accommodate loading and unloading and bike spacing. And it also has two reflectors on the end for better visibility at night.
What our customers are saying:
"Good experience. I already mounted the hitch and it went fine. No problems. Now I just need the bike rack which I expect will arrive just in time for Christmas!"
