Yes, the hands free liftgate feature on your 2018 Nissan Pathfinder will still be functional with the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 76031 installed. However, in order to activate this feature you will need to place your foot on either side of the receiver tube opening which I have attached a photo of for you. This will be the case for the majority of vehicles with the hands free liftgate feature like your Pathfinder.

The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver is a custom fit which means no drilling is required and it is super easy to install. It comes with a lifetime warranty and a durable powder coated finish. I have attached an install video for you as well as a customer review.
