For your 2017 Buick Encore we have the Thule Gateway trunk rack part # TH88VR which is a confirmed fit. We had the chance to install it on a similar 2015 Buick Encore as yours and we found it was a great fit. Check out the review video I attached that shows this.
If you plan on carrying any womens or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Kuat Bike Frame Adapter Bar # UB01 to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point. I attached a review video for this product also. This will allow the bikes to be carried more level and will provide more ground clearance.
