Lot Of Rust. No Warranty.

Got a first generation Motion XT box. A lot of rust developed on metal parts under the box. Thule denied all warranty claiming I should not use the box everyday, and should be stored in a garage most of the time. So have in mind this product is intended for light use, and no warranty is really applicable.

Perfect Fit For A Mazda Cx-90

It fit everything I needed and still within the weight limit. I also drove confidently, it is sturdy. XL size perfect fit for a Mazda CX-90. You can't mount it alone though. It is too big to be carried by 1 person.

Great Roof Box

After researching and looking into several different roof boxes, this one was the most recommended. It's exactly what I was looking for; secure, quiet, durable, and looks nice. We also purchased the Thule telescoping ladder which has made accessing the box super convenient and easy.

Great Box, Be Careful Of Freezing Locks

Box itself is great, holds plenty of gear and is completely silent on top of my Q3 on the highway. Took it out on a road trip on a very windy weekend and didn't feel or hear it at all. It ate up all my wet gear and was great to have it outside the car The lock situation has to knock off a star though. My first use was to take it skiing and the locks on both sides froze shut. There was some moisture in the air and it was 17 degrees out but having to spend 10 minutes thawing the locks so I could get into the box was not particularly fun and makes me nervous for using it for skis when it's really cold

Great Box

Bought this to expand capacity on my SQ8 for holiday trips to family and the airport. It swallows gear and a double stroller like a champ. Relatively low wind noise and drag, even at 80mph cruise (we live out west). Very pleased after 2 years of use.

Great Cartoon Carrier

The Thule cartop carrier is very well designed and easily installed on the Thule Edge rack. It holds a lot of items and relieves the load in the car trunk!

1st Time Customer And Pleased

I purchased the Motion 3L for my MDX. The installation was quick and easy. It definitely gave us the extra cargo spaced needed for longer trips. My wife and I are extremely pleased with the esthetics of the product as I was a little concerned it would look to bulky. The only regret is I didn't go up one size to the XL.

Thule Motion 3 Xl Perfect For Subaru Outback

I work at an east coast ski shop and have used Thule for many years. The Motion 3 XL fits perfectly with the Subaru Outback factory crossbars, adjustable to have clearance with tailgate. Frees up cargo space inside car, carrying my skis and poles on rooftop protected from the elements and road salt, etc. Extremely pleased!

Best Whistle Sound Ever!

Did great. Driving down the road and part of the rubber piece comes out and is lost forever. Unbeknownst to us the amazing whistle we got to enjoy on our 9 hour trip was due to this little event. In true Thule fashion there are no available replacements. Plus with the 1500 different options of bars and connectors and clamps and carriers there is no way to know which one you need. So I got to order numerous replacement pieces that still do not fit. Thx Thule! Great product about as well designed as what my 5 year old nephew would have come up with to attach a box to a rooftop!

Bought about a month ago to replace an older box. Does exactly as advertised, keeps my gear from floating about in my vehicle while keeping it secure.

Just What We Needed!

Recently bought and took it on a mountain trip. Worked great for our extra gear. Latches and locks work great. XXL fit our 2022 explorer nicely. Had heavy crosswind and 75 mph interstate speed with very minimal wind noise. I really expected it to be noisy and it was not. Two thumbs up !!

Great Product!

The Thule Motion 3L is an excellent rooftop cargo box that delivers on both form and function. Its easy installation makes it a hassle-free addition to any road trip setup, even for first-time users (able to install by myself). The sleek, modern design not only looks great but also complements a wide range of vehicle styles and it fit our Subaru Outback perfectly! Most impressively, it remains quiet while driving, minimizing wind noise and allowing for a more comfortable ride. Overall, the Motion 3L stands out as a premium, user-friendly solution for anyone in need of extra storage space.
