Bought 5 months ago and it will not tighten in the cupholder. It's coming apart.

Hi,
It is very odd for the Car Cup Mount to stop working after just 5 months of use. We'll have our Customer Service Team sort this out for you. Just send us your contact details at BelkinCares@belkin.com along with the link to this post.
The overall idea is great and the mount looks elegant and neat in the car. Unfortunately like with many others here, I could not use it at all. Once I received it and tried to install it, the top and base separated and the mount could not be fixed as it was now in parts. Have sent it back and I am hoping the replacement will work.

Hi, PeterPan23,
It's quite unfortunate that the product did not work as expected. We're glad to hear that you were able to request a replacement for this. If you have further questions, feel free to email us at BelkinCares@belkin.com. Don't forget to include the link to this post.
I've had this for over two years, and it is great. No problems at all. I've recommended it to many. Stable and unobtrusive in both my A4 & GTI. No durability problems for me.
I purchased this at an Apple Store. The car cup holder didn't last about two months until the base expansion legs retracted by themselves.
Once that defect happened, the car cup mount rolled around in the cup holder.

Hi,
Thank you for bringing this to our attention. Please get in touch with us at BelkinCares@belkin.com so we can take a closer look at your experience with the car cup mount. Indicate your contact information and the link to this review for our reference.
I have gone through FOUR of these (one after the other) over the past nine months. As others have described, all four have had the base separate from the top end, so that they can no longer be tightened. I would have rated these five stars except for this problem. I think Belkin should take this feedback, examine, and correct this design flaw. Then they will have a winner. I'd pay $50 for one (Instead of $33 at Target) if I knew it would last 2+ years.

I bought it some months ago but as other reviews It broke without any force so now it is not posible to install it.

Hi, Raymi,
It is very odd for the car cup mount to break after just a few months of use. We'll have our Customer Service Team sort this out for you. Just send us your contact details at BelkinCares@belkin.com along with the link to this post for our reference.
I bought the holder placed it into the cup holder and never removed it. The other day I found it loose in the cup holder and found that it was no longer gripping. I tried to tighten it but would not tighten. Found the plastic around the screw at the bottom had broken.

Hi, Rob M,
What you have experienced is odd especially that the dock hasn't been removed from the cup holder since you installed it. Let us have this checked further to know what could've caused it. Please email us a copy of the receipt at BelkinCares@belkin.com along with your phone number and the link to this post for our reference.
I should have read the reviews before purchasing this product! I purchased it less than 3 months ago and the clamp are no longer working, making the mount useless. It was installed in one car and I never removed it, it just gave up one day!
I would not recommend buying this product.
