I'm not sure if I'm the only one with this problem, or I'm doing it wrong but it has been a problem in my last 2 wagons.

When you have the rear seats folded with the cargo net extended to the roof from the back of the seats (directly behind driver), when you take a hard right turn, the base of the cargo net slides out of its brackets and it starts hanging free and swinging around.

How can I to stop this from happening??

Thanks

Not sure about MB but I had a similar issue with Audi. I fixed it by adding a bit of electrical tape (I used the rough stuff, not the smooth tape) That gave it a bit more more grip and kept the pin from sliding out of the tube it fit into.
