Do you own their stock? ;)  I am in the process of contacting Garhauer.

  They lock in the holes JUST FINE.  You may have either a defective set
  of cleats or a defective track.  Have you talked to Garhauer about your
  problem?  It is important to actually align the pin with the holes, and
  it is a reasonably precise fit, but I have NEVER had any problem
  getting the pins in my Garhauer midship cleats to fit into the holes in
  my genoa track, nor have they EVER slipped.
