Hitch mount bike racks are easier to install on the vehicle as well as install your bikes on, plus the rack itself won't touch your vehicle so I definitely recommend going that route for your 2019 Nissan Murano.

For a trailer hitch I highly recommend the etrailer.com Trailer Hitch Receiver # e98907 because it's the only option that has the matte black finish. Not only is this type of finish becoming more popular, it serves a purpose too because it hides dents and scratches better than the glossy black finish that you see on every other trailer hitch out there.

Then for a bike rack I really like the Kuat Sherpa 2.0 because it is a high-quality bike rack with an aluminum construction and a limited lifetime warranty so you know that you're getting a bike rack that will last a long time. This rack comes in Gray # SH22G, Black # SH22B, and Pearl # SH22P, includes bike and rack locks, and secures bikes by the wheel so it is compatible with any frame style out there just as long as your bike doesn't have a front fender.

Attached is an installation video of the trailer hitch on a '19 Nissan Murano (some pics too!) as well as a review video of the Sherpa 2.0 that you can check out.

I apologize that I didn't address that in my initial answer. We do have an install team that would be happy to help out! We are located in Wentzville, Missouri (about 40 minutes West of St. Louis) so if you are within driving distance you can call our Customer Service team at 1-800-298-8924 to schedule an installation. Aside from that we recommend having a shop with a good reputation perform the installation, as any shop should be able to install the trailer hitch without any issues.
