I've had 2 in a short period of time stop tightening and can't get the manufacture to respond in any way. Lots of money for a product that only lasted a few months. Anyone else having issues with this product not tightening? If I hold the clamps...

I had a similar problem until I discovered that the rubber/neoprene had come off. Have not had a problem since. It stays where I put it and just leave it. Don't move it until I get a new automobile.

I had a similar issue and found that it was a result of tightening the posts too much. The cams they used are also of lower quality so many that actually locked into place didn't give you the "click" feeling that would let you know you had it right. I put mine together with full anticipation that it need to be fix within a few weeks, so far (4 months later) it's holding strong to daily use with no indication of loosening.

I don't have an answer for this...only that mine does the same. At one point mine seemed to be slowing down and then I realized that it was loose. You may want to try tightening.

The tightness is the one, possible complaint the user might have . . . in a word. I should add that others say "No," but all three of mine do it. They do loosen up after a while, but I've never found the tightness to be a prob. As stated elsewhere, the co does stand behind their product and will replace, practically at the "drop of a hat." Call`em if there's a cont'd prob.

Hi. I have had the same problem. I have no answer. I have actually returned a couple to the mfgr. I like them but they don't last.

That happened to me at the beginning. I just held it in when I picked it up. Then after it had been in there a couple weeks, it never tried to fall out again even without support. Give it a little time?

No, I had the same issue. I just did not bother. I figure one could happen, but two would be rare, and can only be an issue of a manufacturing issue, in which case I have purchase other products, and had not had any issues. Will never purchase from this company again.

I had a problem with my first one as well. Contact amazon and they will return it. I bought a second one and its working fine. Hopefully this company makes a stronger one soon. It works great. Just flimsy.

It sounds as though your ball is not seated properly or the connection is not tight enough. I have had this model for nearly a year with no stability issue at all. My husband has used the same type for nearly three years and his is still very stable. Mine did come loose one time and I had trouble getting back on securely. Once I got it to 'snap' in place it has remained tight and moves only when I move it myself. If this is a new purchase I would suggest contacting the seller for replacement.

I am having difficulty with mine as well. I took the little snap out of band several times and it is just now starting to hold. I not real impressed Fitbit.

Same thing happened to me...twice. They sent me a replacement the first time. Now I'll try the super glue method. I love the way it works aside from the breaking.

Mine were EXTREMELY hard to release at first, and are still much harder than the old Lockjaw Pros' were. They have loosened up some, but they definitely hold TIGHT. You don't need to worry about pushing the little black locking-tab, these new ones are designed to release without pushing it, just pull the release lever very hard, and they should release. Hopefully.

I assume you mean the actual line gets loose. So far mine has not needed tightening.

I've had mine for a little over 5 years and it just seemed to vibrate loose. I have to do some more investigation but I think this is what is causing the leak. Again, this is after purchasing in October 2009.

so frustrated. Have had mine a few months but only used it about 4 times. Mine also broke. Bummer.

I am afraid mine does the same thing...I bought two of them and experienced the same problem. I have only used one of them so far and was hoping that the other one would not leak. My suspicion was that maybe I over tightened the one that I was using but now I don't know. Please share if you come up with a solution camp girl.

UGH, I do not know what to say but contact Dupont or send it back if it is defective. If you twisted it off when you received it, I don't understand why it wont go back on. sorry. I have only had good results with them, maybe you got a bum.
