Expert Reply:

Installing a trailer hitch such as Curt trailer hitch # C11377 will not affect the tire sensors. However, depending on what you use the hitch for the extra weight in the hitch could cause an inaccurate reading of the tire sensors but should go back to normal (if it happens at all) once the load is removed from the hitch.

If you want to use the hitch for a bike rack or cargo carrier and not towing then I recommend going with Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 24914.

Also, make sure the accessory is rated for use with a Class I trailer hitch. And with a bike rack you are limited to 2 bikes maximum on a Class I hitch. The Curt # C18085, is a great option. I have linked the Class I compatible 2-bike racks and cargo carriers for you.
