One of the nice things about the Kuat line of racks is they have a built-in system to prevent this from happening. You can't see from the pics I posted. But, there is a knob to turn under the rack that takes any slack out the attachment point at the hitch.

I guess it REALLY must be overkill s I use a kyat NV on my smart for two and fiat 500. Plus I purchased a 2" nv with add-on for my RV. After using racks since the 60's I have found that KUAT is the leader of the pack. Better designed, better built and better customer support. Good luck with your decision.
