Motor Trend SafeKeeper Heavy Duty Car Cover Waterproof All Weather Multi-Layered Truck SUV Car Cover for Snow Rain

I was anxious to find a quality cover for our 2025 Santa Fe, protecting it from the weather while we were on travel for a month. I love this Motor Trend Safeguard vehicle cover. As you can see from the pictures it was an excellent fit and offered total protection from the dropping fall leaves, rain, and wind. It's well made with reinforced seams and reflective stripes, good for street parking, though that wasn't an issue for me. The multi-layer cover has an outer layer that is a reflective silver color that is tough and durable, yet the inner layer is a soft fabric that protected the finish on our vehicle. It has three under vehicle straps with click buckles which allows for the cover to be secured in the front, middle, and rear of the vehicle, and provide resistance from lifting in the wind. It's a one-piece unit that DOES NOT have zippered access which I found to be an advantage, as it limits someones ability to easily get into the vehicle while it is covered. It's important to note that when installing, it's best to start with a clean car so the inner fabric layer doesn't get dirty which could lead to fine scratches of the vehicle's paint. None of that happen and I'm extremely pleased with how it fit our vehicle and and kept it protected for over 30 days. I highly recomment this Motor Trend Safeguard SUV cover. Read more

I just wanted to share my experience with the Motor Trend Safekeeper car cover. I have just bought my third one. Unfortunately they only last two years but in the two years before they become porous, they are the best car cover that I have found. Prior to replacing my last one I decided; let me see what else is out there. I tried carcover.com, I tried seal coat (they were the worst). I tried two or three different brands off of Amazon. None of them fit as well as this one. Some of them, despite saying that they were waterproof couldn’t even keep the moisture from dew off the car. Straps, forget about it! Placement, quality, all garbage. This car cover as seen in the picture is my go to car cover. Our 55 Buick unfortunately lives in the driveway and needs protection. The only thing that I wish it was a little taller and covered more of the tire, but look how well this non-custom car cover fits! We live in New York, so we get rain, sleet, snow, sun, wind it protects it from all of it. Incidentally, the first one I bought was actually defective and I needed it replaced. Motor Trend’s customer service was excellent! Read more

The Motortrend Safekeeper, compared to the custom covers I have purchased in the past, is a better cover than any of them. This is my initial impression. In the past I have paid a lot more for a custom cover because I believed that you did "get what you paid for." However, after a year, or less, I was sadly mistaken. And those "lifetime warranties" suddenly disappeared in loopholes. Those “custom covers” seem to disintegrate the same as ANY other cover. If this Motortrend cover lasts more than 12 months I will be happy. That's as long as any more expensive custom car covers lasted. The MT cover is thick and soft. It has sewn in straps on the front, middle, and rear to secure the cover during those windy days. The 176-inch length is perfect for my 2012 Miata MX5. It covers all the way down to my tires. The only thing I miss are the custom mirror pockets and antenna glove. But I'm willing to do without those features . This cover looks good on my Miata. I recommend this product. UPDATE: After four months of heavy California sun with temperatures over 100-degrees, this cover has held up against tears. However, there is some disintegration with the surface layer. Dirt and dust have "baked" into the top plastic layer. I have been washing the dirt off of the car covers while they are still on the car and that worked to keep the covers clean and looking new for a while. However, no amount of washing has been able to remove the baked in dirt stains. I am sad to say that today, September 4, 2022, this car cover has failed after only FIVE month of sun exposure. I purchased this cover on April 6, 2022. Through this short time, the MT cover has become brittle and many tears are appearing. UPDATE: September 2022: I contacted MotorTrend Store Support to find out if there was a warranty replacement. I was referred to BDK automobile products from Amazon at ton@bdkauto.com. I'm happy to say a replacement cover was received after providing photos and purchase information of the cover. UPDATE: July 2023, The same sun damage and deterioration is taking place on the replacement cover. The cover is becoming brittle and the surface is absorbing dust into the plastic, just as before. I believe the extra 4 months of longevity, this time, is attributable to the fact that for a period of time I covered the MotorTrend cover with another lighter car cover. A car cover to protect my car cover, crazy. Will I replace the MT cover with a new one from out my own pocket? Considering the alternatives, yes. Every car cover purchased in the past, as I’ve stated earlier, has not performed any better at even a higher cost; unfortunately. And I want to protect my car as much as I can. Other than a garage or car port, does anyone have any recommendations? Read more

Good item so far but I haven’t had it on my car for that long yet but the fit is good and the material seems to be durable and I expect to get a decent serviceable lifetime from this product. Read more
