    It looks like there is a twist and lock mechanism on these hooks. I guess they didn't twist them enough at the production line...

    Don't worry. They use "bungee cords" for the hooks. In a week, they'll be stretched out worse than a 40 year old contortionist and won't pull on anything. That's something that GM and the other car companies have failed at is cargo nets/covers that use nylon/elastic covers and nets. They stretch out horribly.
