BRIGHTLINES Cross Bars Roof Luggage Bars Roof Racks Compatible with 2014-2022 Jeep Cherokee

Perfect fit for my wife's 2014 Cherokee. It fits securely to the existing factory rails and have remained secure for the last three months, even with a cargo basket attached. So far so good.

Fit's 2015 Trailhawk. I use it to carry sailboards, windsurfers. These are about as solid as you get. The locks are superfluous and needless. You need a 5mm hex key to open these and remove from the rail. I seriously doubt some punk is going to take 20mins to unbolt these from your rack "if he even has a 5mm hex key" in the bag??The locks are essentially a thin plastic cover. When you use your key it rotates a plastic cover over the hex key hole, ostensibly "obscuring" it. Hardly sophisticated. While being a total joke, it's easy to take a drill and simply hole the covers. Trust, no thief want's your bbq or generic racks. Plus these are so beefy and well made ripping them off is not an option. Soft and durable rubber covers your rails, very plush. Use the supplied rubber track strip to alay wind noise. I first fit the racks, then used a marker to witness where I would have to cut the generous strips of seal you are supplied. Removed the racks, then cut to fit. Easy Peasy. Please use common sense and secure your kayak,surfboard, 2x4s or whatever your hauling not TO YOUR RACK, but to your ROOF RAIL. That's right. The crossbars support the weight and straps secure to the cross RAILS. Never tie the end of you strap to the BARS always the rails. There one guy that posted on here and he lost his Kayak. Honesty he was probably speeding into a headwind and simply forgot. His pictures clearly show he had items with the aerodynamics of a Air Craft Carrier secured to $100 bars. These will work. Just secure the load to the SIDE RAILS>

As advertised, very good-tight fit onto roof rails. Carefully added rubber insert to bottom of cross bars for wind noise. Good to about 45 mph then sounds like the window isn't quite closed which is caused by the wind noise from the cross bars. Not deafening by any means and my wife hasn't even commented. I am just more aware because they are new. I am leaving them on my 2016 Jeep Cherokee Limited. They look good on the vehicle!

So far so good. Looks good fits my 2016 jeep Cherokee just fine hope I didnt over tighten it tho. I put the rubber bottom on first before putting it on the roof then I cut off the extra length after I lined it all up I found that easy. There is no extra sound from the bars that I can tell just as quiet as before. The delivery was very fast as well and package was good.

The Brightlines cross bars fit my 2015 Jeep Cherokee Latitude FWD and the installation was very simple. Pros;Installation took 15 minutes, using the supplied long Allen key, adjusting the brackets was a snap.They look good and are mounted solid.I will add that I must have a newer version of the cross bars. The mounts have rubber pads that grip your factory roof bars and included rubber track seals that eliminates the wind noise. Reading older reviews, one issue that I was concerned with was scratching the finish on my roof bars and the wind noise. Those issues are resolved with the supplied hardware included.Light weight and can be installed by one person.Cons;The brackets are made of a light weight plastic, over tightening will cause damage to the brackets. I recommend tightening to snug, stop tightening when the bars feel solid and have very little play it movement.The locking mechanism is pretty simple and seems like it could easily be defeated. My plans are to attach a ski/snowboard rack, I don't plan to leave anything of value attached to the bars as the brackets and lock mechanism could be pryed off and your valuables can be easily stolen.Other than the extruded aluminum bars, all hardware and mounting brackets are made of plastic.But honestly for the price, these are a fraction of the cost of the Yakima and Thule equivalent cross bars. I'm very satisfied and the Brightlines cross bars and will do what I need them to do.

First it fits my 2015 Jeep Cherokee Latitude roof rails (which are the same rails no matter what 205 Cherokee you get), the seller brilliant item sent quickly and arrived within a week, took them straight out the box (they were already complete no messing around having to put things together) released the clamps with the hex key and installed them on the car, easy.Now just a few niggles, 1. as others have said the instructions a single small piece of paper that say use hex key to fit and remove, luckily having done some homework and read other reviews I had a good idea what to expect. SO better instructions for people who maybe a little less knowledgeable would be good.2. A second hex key would be nice reason is the one that comes with it is very long for it to get into the clamp to release it so it fits on your rail, no firstly what if you loose it, it can happen and also if you had a second perhaps in a little wallet you could carry it in the car so when you get to your destination and don't need them for a while you can remove them. Just a thought. (oh also to point out as the key supplied is very long to go into the clamp if you lose it you may not be able to buy another that length, just a thought)3. The rubber pieces that cushion the clamps when you put them on the rails do tend to flap around a bit so if you don't watch what you are doing (perhaps you are in a rush) you could possibly get the rubber caught so it wasn't between the clamp and the rail and maybe (again perhaps) end up scratching your rails....not a nice thought.Now I have installed these bars and they fit very easily and look nice, I haven't yet used them for transporting anything but wanted ready for when I need to. Plus when you compare to the Thule ones that mopar sell for over three hundred dollars these are a great deal. Plus go careful when you open the box they come in as that's a perfect place to store them when not in use.I haven't used them when driving so cannot comment on the sound they create yet but when I do I will update.I hope this review helps anyone who like myself wanted to be sure they fitted the new Cherokee, if you have any questions please ask.
