Expert Answers about Nissan Rogue


  • Can Womens Bike Be Carried On Hitch Mounted Platform Bike Carrier
  • The bike carriers we offer are able to carry bikes with alternative frames like kids bikes and women's bikes. Platform bike carriers like part # S64670 will many times use a telescoping hook on the mast that allows them to hold women's bikes at a lower point on the frame. Hanging bike carriers are a different story. We recommend using an adapter bar like part # 64005. This attaches to the seat post and the handlebar stem and lets you carry the bike level in the carriers. You can use...

  • Stabilizing Strap for Platform Bike Rack
  • I believe what you're looking for is the Curt Hitch Mounted Accessory Stabilizing Strap, part # 18050. I've linked to a video showing how the strap is used. Even though you're planning on using a strap, be sure that the combined weight of your bikes and the bike rack doesn't exceed the tongue weight capacity of the # C13204 Curt Class III hitch, which is 525 lbs.

  • Will Hitch Installation on 2017 Nissan Rogue Affect Operation of Rear Hatch Lift Sensors
  • Automated rear hatch opening systems on vehicles like your 2017 Nissan Rogue usually have multiple sensors at various points on the rear bumper cover. Hitch installation will often block the centrally-located sensor but usually does not affect those towards the outside edges of the bumper. So if you were to install one of the available 2-inch Class III hitches like Draw-Tite # 75902 or Curt # C13204, or either of the 1-1/4-inch Class II models, # 36542 or # C12122, you will just need to...

  • Cross Bars and Roof Top Tent for 2015 Nissan Rogue
  • Yes, you will need cross bars to go with your factory installed rails. I recommend the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars, # RRVA126B-2 installed using the Rhino-Rack SX Series Legs for Vortex Aero Crossbars, # RRSX100. I have linked a product review and installation video below of these being put on 2015 Nissan Rogue. These have a dynamic weight capacity of 165 lbs. and will work with the roof top tents such as the Yakima SkyRise Tent for Roof Rack Crossbars - 3 Person, # Y79XR or # Y07437...

  • How to Tow 2018 Nissan Rogue With Front Wheel Drive Behind Motorhome
  • I took a look at the owner's manual for a 2018 Nissan Rogue and it stated that this vehicle cannot be flat towed, and can only use a tow dolly if you have a front wheel drive version. For this, the manual states to "Place the ignition switch in the OFF position ... Never secure the steering wheel by placing the ignition switch in the LOCK position. This may damage the steering lock mechanism." For a tow dolly I highly recommend the Demco Kar Kaddy SS Tow Dolly with Disc Brakes - Foldable...

  • Can A Brake Controller Be Turned Off So It Doesn't Drain Vehicle Battery
  • The fact that the Curt # C51170 has a direct connection to battery is not unique to the Curt Spectrum brake controller, they all install in that manner. This is purposely done as a safety measure, so the user can't forget to turn on the brake controller before they tow. The good news is that after a short period of inactivity (varies from 10-20 minutes) the controller will go into a sleep mode, at which point they only draw a miniscule amount of power. Unless the vehicle will be left unattended...

  • Class III Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver for Nissan Rogue
  • It is rare, but sometimes the hitches are shipped with some missed weld spatter that should have been cleared. Yes, you can simply file that off of your Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver, # C13204 and be just fine. Some Class I hitches may have a weld stop in the tube to prevent the use accessories that are only intended for higher rated hitches. Your hitch is rated at Class III so that is not the situation, you have have weld splatter and not an intended weld stop.

  • Parts Needed to Tow With a 2020 Nissan Rogue
  • To answer your first question, you will be limited by the lowest rated component. It looks like the maximum towing capacity for your 2020 Nissan Rogue is 1,102 pounds. To verify this, you can check the inside door jamb of the driver door. There will be a sticker/label with all the capacities of the vehicle. As to the rest of your questions, a transmission cooler is generally suggested if you will be towing often. Transmissions can get pretty warm when doing this and a cooler will help...

  • Does etrailer Hitch For 2023 Nissan Rogue Interfere With Hands-Free Liftgate
  • The hands-free liftgate on your 2023 Nissan Rogue will still be functional after installing the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e93ZR. You'll need to kick your foot to either side of the 2 inch receiver, but it will still activate. I also wanted to mention, just in the interest of being thorough, that if you also plan on doing any towing with your '23 Rogue and need a wiring harness, the correct fit is the Vehicle Wiring Harness # C44ER.
