I have an escape with roof rack and two cross bars. Will this work on that? do you just attach to the cross bars?

Hopefully, ideally, yes. but likely you'll still want some bungee cords to stop the slight shifting that comes with stop/go/curves. It helps when the straps start to loosen on a long day's drive. (Disclaimer - I'm guessing.)

Not worth the money zipper broke before every used Returned same day!!!!!!!!

Ya it will work. But this product sucks! Did a cross country trip and hala way through we gave up on it and went to sears and got a hard case one. The zipper broke immediately!

I used it in same fashion with pull tight straps and was fine. But suggest you try different carrier both zippers broke before I even got it on car. Material was good but zippers were garbage. I don't recommend it

It is engineered to work on there but the quality of the rain x bag isnot very good I wouldn't trust it on a 2 hour ride at 75 to 80 mpH. I bought two of these bags. When me and my mother in law were filling the first bag both of the zippers broke off. The second bag the zippers held but are very hard to maneuver closed

I think it would work good on your escape. It's easy to attach and will prob fill the roof rack. Good quality material, waterproof and a flap that velcro over the zipper

I used mine on my Toyota Sienna which had the rack and two cross bars. We spaced the cross bars just enough so the carrier would fit just inside and laid it directly onto the roof surface. The clips attached to all four sides of the rails/racks. Unfortunately, we returned it as it didn't even make it the whole trip. We used ours in the summer and the zipper tabs completely broke even though we had them locked together.

Yes it will. It will have to sit on the roof of the car, then there are plenty of tie down loops to attach it to the rack. I used mine in October for a 4500 mile round trip. The way out was fine, but upon arriving home I realised the heavy duty zipper had separated in a few places. I'm in the process of returning it. Just so you know. Good luck.

Should work fine. The clamps on the box are not specific to a particular style of crossbar. You will want to spread the crossbars (front and rear) as far apart as possible to provide greater stability. The biggest trick to putting the box on is getting a foothold. Our Jeep has siderails that make mounting the box easier......this box looks very slender but it carries so much cargo it's unbelievable.

I transport 2 - 9 foot kayaks on the stacker on a Ford EScape. The stacker connects to the two crossbars on my Ford roof rack. I had some challenges mounting both of them on before tying on before sliding them off. I added new Inno devices that prevent the sideways kayaks as I tie them off.

It's meant to clamp on to your existing roof rack. I had a Yakima rack (2 bars going across) and this attached easily to it. It is of high quality, very sturdy. I'm very happy with it. You'd have to ask someone else though about it working with yours. Jeff H

Yes, you do! The crossbar connect into the roof rails so you need to purchase and install those first.

Depends on the size of the hitch. It only fits a 2 inch. It does not fit my Escape.

Hello, is this for Roof Rails...left and the right...your ad is misleading..roof rails are the ones that attach to the vehicle and cross bars attach to the roof rails. Please let me know..if they are rails ...I will buy it..

The bike rack mounts in the trailer hitch receiver which are universal in size. We mounted the rack on a 07 Ford Escape. The only issue is possibly with clearance if the spare tire is externally mounted on the tailgate, although correctable with an extension. To be direct if you have a trailer hitch on the vehicle, it should fit.

You have to buy the add on cross bar for it to work. I bought it and its pretty easy to use.

It should fit. You will need to purchase the metal c-channel that fits in the rail before you can install the roof rack. Works great and very easy to install. Took less than an hour to install c-channel and crossbars.

Good day, this carrier is designed to fit all Thule and most aftermarket roof rack systems and crossbars. If the crossbar dimensions do not vary too much from any of the Thule bars, then this should fit without any issue. Thank you and have a great day!

Should work no problem but you need the rail inserts Ray mentioned. Cross bars warked great after I bought the inserts.

It depends on the type of roof rack you have. If you only have rails without cross supports it may not work. My son just tried to use it on his Subaru Forester that has only rails running from front to back and he was concerned that the load would slide off without cross bars. The straps are substantial and will hold the bag down, but i also bought a cargo net with hooks to go over the bag. If the bag id going to ride on the top surface of the car and not on a rack, then i would suggest you also purchase a non-slip pad to go between the bag and the vehicle surface to help hold the bag in place and protect the vehicle's finish.

It doesn't - it attaches to the roof rails that are already on the vehicle - if your vehicle does not have roof rails, then these bars won't work for you

I think Yakima really designed this particular rack for the factory cross bars, since many of their other racks work with their proprietary shape. So, if your car is rolling with those bad boys, you should be all set; they set up on my Subaru no problem!

The roof racks fit my X-bar that is oval and flat. It should fit round rails or really any shape. I tighten the racks to the x-bar using channel locks just to be sure and drove over 600 miles, checking the straps once. All worked great.

It should fit if you have crossbars on your roof rack. These racks are best used a few times a year. This rack not for everyday use mounting bike is not that easy. I use mine four times a year to take bikes camping.
