Best Roof Rack for 2019 Ford Focus Hatchback That Doesnt Make Noise

Question

Question:

I would really like a nice roof rack for 2019 Ford Focus hatchback with a naked roof - theres nothing on it at all. But I do not want something that is really loud. Ive roof racks before that made too much noise. What roof rack do you recommend that is not only quiet but also pretty strong and (of course), looks nice? Thanks!

We have the perfect roof rack for you to put on your 2019 Ford Focus hatchback which uses JetStream crossbars from Yakima. This rack is composed of:

- JetStream Crossbars # Y00426
- BaseLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars # Y28TR
- BaseClip Fit Kit for Yakima BaseLine Roof Rack Towers # Y06135
- BaseClip Fit Kit for Yakima BaseLine Roof Rack Towers # Y06105

The aerodynamic shape of the JetStream bars, along with their built-in WindRidges, is what ensures that this roof rack minimizes the wind noise that other types of crossbars can create. They will also look graceful atop your '19 Focus due to the aero shape, as you can see by the accompanying photo of this rack on a Focus.

The JetStream crossbars are extremely functional and durable due to their anodized aluminum construction, which not only provides them with optimal strength but also ensures they are resistant to corrosion. These crossbars have T-slots which allow you to use channel-mounted accessories; the T-slots have rubber "SmartFill" strips in them which means you are not going to have to cut them to mount accessories, you can simply push the strips in to use the T-slots.

I do recommend adding the Yakima Same Key System (SKS) locks # Y07204 to lock the rack and help protect your investment; I have added links to video reviews of the roof rack and locks for you to take a look at as well.

Hello Reyes; at this time (September 2024) there are no Rhino-Rack roof racks confirmed to fit your 2024 GMC Acadia AT4. The only roof racks we have that are confirmed to fit your raised rails are from Malone like the AirFlow2 #MAL74AR or #MPG215.

The Malone Universal Crossbar System #MPG201 is a more economical choice but it still does a good job. The design and quality of Thule's system is why they have such a large difference in price. Whether you go with the Thule Crossroads system…
