Mounting Feet of SportRack Roof Rack Part # SR1010 Not Flush on a 2015 Ford Fiesta
Question:
I just recieved my Sportrack SR1010 which I was told would fit my 2015 Ford Fiesta. Upon installation I noticed the feet not laying flat in my roofline. I did read that I can keep tightening until they flatten but wanted to make sure. Should I keep tightening? Thanks!

The SportRack Semi-Custom Roof Rack part # SR1010 is indeed a confirmed fit for your 2015 Ford Fiesta. I spoke to my contact at SportRack (Thule) and they informed me that as it is a universal system, the mounting feet will not sit flush on the roof. They will begin to take shape the more you tighten them, but you will need to be careful not to overtighten as this will strip the threads inside the housing.
