Question:
I have a 2011 Nissan Sentra. I would like to get a ball hitch for my car. I have a bike rack that could attach to a ball hitch. I called Nissan and they werent sure if this type of car could have a ball hitch. If you could let me know, that would be helpful. Thanks so much.

You can certainly install a trailer hitch on your 2011 Nissan Sentra for use with a hitch-mounted bike rack.
I recommend the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24794. This Class I trailer hitch is custom designed and confirmed to fit your Sentra. I have even included an installation video on this very vehicle that you can watch for reference. This hitch will provide a 1-1/4 inch receiver that will accept compatible hitch-mounted bike racks and other accessories like cargo carriers.
You will just want to make sure that your existing bike rack is compatible with Class I trailer hitches while also noting that the most bikes a Class I hitch can support is 2, even if the bike rack itself is capable of carrying more. I have also attached a link that will take you to our available selection of hitch mounted bike racks that are compatible with Class I hitches that you can look through.
