Three times now the filter has fallen off while driving! When this happens, the car sputters a bit and then shuts off power and locks up. I tried tightening the hose clamp as tight as possible. I tried slightly looser. What can I do to give it better grip and not fall off?? Has anyone else experienced this?
Try pushing the filter further onto the pipe and then tightening the clamp. From the picture it looks like yours isn't on far enough.

ok, i am going to try the Xtreme Tape on the end of the tube, and a T-bolt clamp to tighten more. Thanks.
