Excellent Rack

a month ago
Bought the Thule Helium Platform XT for use with my Kia EV6 GTSeries. I really like the rack, and the ease with which bikes can be loaded/unloaded. Haven't had any problems with Helium Platform once I was able to install it properly. A hitch extension needed to used with a standard Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver so that the rack did not rub up against the rear bumper (this may not be a problem with EV6 trim lines other than the GT series).

Simple, rapide, et solide. Il a fier allure aussi. Il fonctionne bien avec une rallonge pivotante également.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Do not buy!!

Do not buy!! Especially not for this ridiculous price. This rack is cheap and will not last. The plastic (!!) arm that the ratchet mechanism attaches to broke within two months of purchase. They were good about the warranty, but I was lucky that it didn’t happen while I was driving. In the year since then, the mechanism has gotten jammed with dust and debris and no longer reliably cinches down on my bikes. I have attempted to take it apart to clean it several times but it inevitably becomes jammed again. It has also collapsed into the lowered position while driving on the highway. I do not trust it to carry my bikes.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Thule Customer Support
Hello, Thank you for providing your feedback on the Thule Helium Platform XT. I'm sorry to hear about the stuck arms. We recommend using a silicon lubricant to help displace water and allow for smooth operation in all temperatures. You can also contact Thule support directly should any issues come up in the future.

Short Life For The Price

5 months ago
While this rack is expensive, like many others, I love the ease of use (when it works) and fact that the rack only contacts my bike tires. However, the rack has failed twice in a little over three years. I have just submitted my second warranty claim. The ratchet tray failed the first go round and the arms would not lock in place. This time the mechanism in the handle that releases the ratchet in both arms has locked up. I've tried lubricating them with no luck. Both fails were for the inner arms which I use on a regular basis. To Thule's credit the first warranty claim was pretty painless - they just sent me two new arms with little discussion - unfortunately they've failed again. I'm hoping this warranty request goes as well.

No, I do not recommend this product.
