I checked with Magnaflow and the issue is that the routing of the exhaust pipes that are in the Magnaflow Catback kit # MF15583 would interfere with the factory hitch of the 2010-2013 Nissan Xterras.

I am sure that if you took the # MF15583 to a qualified muffler shop they would be able to come up with a way to route the exhaust around the hitch so that it wouldn't interfere.
