Trunk Mount Bike Rack to Fit 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee With Spoiler
Question:
Hi! I am hoping someone can help me. Will the Thule Passage/Venture fit my 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee with a spoiler? There is not a gap between the spoiler and the trunk. If this wont fit, what is my next best option? I do not have a hitch and I am too short for a roof mounted rack. Thanks in advance!

I have a solution for you but the Thule Passage 3-Bike Bike Rack # TH911XT will not fit your car because of the spoiler. The Hollywood Racks Over-the-Top 3 Bike Rack # HRF2-3 fits your 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee. It is also available in a 2 bike version # HRF2. This trunk mount bike rack works great for vehicles with spoilers because the upper-frame allows the top anchor straps to not put as much pressure on your spoiler reducing the risk of damage.
We do not recommend using your hatch with the bike rack in place. You run the risk of the bike rack shifting causing harm to yourself or your vehicle. This may also have clearance issues when using your back wiper blade.
I attached a video of the 2 bike version that shows how this fits an SUV with a spoiler.
