Yes, you can absolutely use the Thule OutWay 2-Bike Rack # TH45JV on a trip that will take you 400 or more miles.

The OutWay, which does fit your 2017 Toyota Camry, uses no-sway cages which means your bikes won't contact each other or your car over the length of your long trip. It also has locking covers over its release levers and an integrated cable lock for your bikes so if you need to make a stop on your journey you can do so knowing the rack and bikes will be there when you get back to your car.

Additionally, please note that when using any hanging rack like the OutWay # TH45JV you'll need bike frame adapter bar # 64005 if your bike is dual-suspension, has a step-through frame or you want to carry a small children's bike. The bar will give those bikes a horizontal mounting point so they can be carried by the rack.
