Recommended Trailer Hitch to Accommodate Wheel Chair Lift on a 2014 Nissan Quest
Question:
I need to have a wheel chair lift placed on our 2014 Nissan Quest. The installer has told me we need to have a tounge weight capacity of at least 300 lbs for this lift to work correctly. Does our quest qualify for this?

Expert Reply:
According to your Owner's Manual for your 2014 Nissan Quest, your vehicle is rated for a maximum tongue load of 350 lbs, so your vehicle in this case will limit the load because it is not rated as high as the hitch.
I recommend the Draw-Tite Class III Max Frame Round Tube Receiver Hitch, # 75714, for your 2014 Nissan Quest. This hitch receiver will have a 525 lb tongue weight rating, which will allow you to have extra cargo behind the rear axle as well. With the other hitch receivers that are also a confirmed fit, you wouldn't be able to have the extra cargo load without overextending your total tongue weight.
Based on what your installer told you, this Draw-Tite hitch on your vehicle should meet your needs of installing the wheel chair lift.
