The problem isn't the dual exhaust on a 2015 Dodge Durango but the size of the spare tire. If the spare is the same size as the other 4 tires on the vehicle then it will be too large for hitch # C13182 to fit and the spare would have to be stored elsewhere. If it is the smaller spare, as shown in the video I have linked, then it will not be a problem.
Draw-Tite hitch # 75713 has a bit of a different design and will allow a full size spare to stay in place under the vehicle.
If you plan on doing some towing I recommend etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.
If the ball mount kit does not have the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, use the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
And for trailer wiring since you have a Limited model you can use # 118617. I have linked a video showing an example installation of the wiring as well.
