No issues whatsoever for my SUV club. It works as designed. I don't know if it'll ultimately work from a motivated car thief with a hacksaw, but if it slows him down long enough to decide to steal the other guy's car instead, I'm good with that. Plus, it's a nice weapon to grab if someone tries to car jack me or approach my truck as I'm loading groceries and I can't get to my gun for some reason.
