How Fast Can I Drive When Thule Interstate Roof Cargo Bag # TH869 is on Roof of 2009 Acura MDX
Question:
What is the recommended maximum recommended speed to travel with the Thule Interstate Roof Cargo Bag TH869 on top of a 2009 Acura MDX? Any restrictions on travel distance? Can you go over 750 miles with the bag on top? Any heavy wind conditions that may be a concern with the Bag on top of the roof?

Expert Reply:
There really isn't a stated maximum speed that you should adhere to when the Thule Interstate Roof Cargo Bag, # TH869, is on the roof of your 2009 Acura MDX. As long as you have secured the bag to the raised side rails or crossbars on the roof you should not have any issues when traveling at the posted highway speed limits or for long distances.
Just a couple of things to keep in mind. This bag can not be used on a vehicle without raised crossbars or side rails. When traveling long distances, it is recommended that you check all straps on the cargo bag at regular intervals, like when you stop for fuel, to make sure they are tight and do not leave the bag on the roof without cargo.
I have attached the installation instructions, as well as a short video, for you.
