hello out there, Just thought that I'd post a topic about an unfortunate event that happened to me over the weekend ... It was a great Sunday morning so I decided to take the kat out for a spin, roof down & Air Patrol fixed in place. As I drove off, I noticed that the AP was rattling a bit, although no more than usual I thought. Called in to my local petrol station & filled up & then hit the road. I was blasting on a bit & then all of a sudden I heard this strange noise & .... there it was gone ... the AP had been "blown off" .... Fortunately the car behind, well quite a way behind actually, stopped & recovered it. it is badly scratched but looks repairable (methinks) I am taking it to my local specialist garage & will see if it can be repaired. Has anyone else suffered this misfortune??? I will have to be more vigilant in future Cheers Mike |

When I had the Air Patrol I never had this problem. But after hearing horror stories such as this and folks not closing the deck lid tight. I always double and triple check everything before I take off down the road. |

When I attach mine, I always pull up on it to make sure it is fastened. |

Sounds very familiar. Fortunately my Air Patrol went the opposite direction. http://www.prowleronline.com/ubb/Forum9/HTML/002048.html I solved it with Lock Tite as suggested by Mr. Real Rod. Never had a problem since then. Guy |
