    I would have to double check but I want to recall the replacements, the pin goes thru the bottom part as to sitting in a drilled groove.

    Atlanta Marine has ordered me replacements. I just sent in a couple of pictures and they got right on it. I am so impressed with SC and Atlanta Marine! Heidi has just been awesome to work with.

    I have a 14 Mojo and both racks have swiveled around and almost taken someone's head off.
    Good to see others are having this problem and it not just me, Guess I will take it to the shop and have them inspect and replace.

    This problem has not been entirely fixed. I have a 2015 mojo, had boards on the rack and driving about 20 miles an hour. The rack suddenly swiveled inwards and almost hit a passenger. Both side racks have done it.

    Update on this issue for future use and reference:

    SC referred me to Skylon about this issue today. I talked to Robby there (extremely helpful) he told me to remove the knob, it is threaded onto the pin with lock tight and it needs to be heated to break the bond. He also told me he has a few updated parts left with a longer pin and knob to correct this problem. You have to drill the seat a little deeper so the new longer pin will engage further into the block. I'll post some photos here of the new stuff when it arrives. The inventory of these parts is almost gone so maybe some photos will help people understand and fix this issue later on down the road. So for about $50 in parts, I'm going to get my racks fixed.

    Here is what Skylon sent me.
    (2) knobs (same as original)
    (2) springs (I think they sent me springs that were too long. They wouldn't compress enough. I used the original springs and they were just fine.)
    (2) new locking pins with for more engagement.

    You have to drill out the hole the pin engages into to make it a through-hole. I used a 9/16" bit to be just slightly larger than the pin. Then all you do is replace the pin with the new longer one.

    Use Loctite blue when you thread the knob back onto the pin threads.

    I'm glad I came across this thread. I own a 2015 Mobius LSV that had the same thing happen to me. While traveling with a board in the rack, it unexpectedly swung around at speed and hit a passenger nearly knocking them out. I figured it must not have been engaged properly when I swung it out. I will be contacting my dealer regarding this problem. Thanks for the heads up.
