Will the Thule OutWay 2 Bike Rack TH45JV work on a 2012 Suzuki Kizashi
Question:
I have Suzuki Kizashi and my Thule OutWay 2 is not working with this car. I am looking for another one and I want to make sure Th45JV works with my car before I buy That.

The Thule OutWay 2 Bike Rack, # TH45JV, is indeed recommended as a fit by Thule for you 2012 Suzuki Kizashi.
OutWay is my personal favorite (and many of our customers agree), due to its easy to use retracting cable mounting system. Both the rack and the bikes are lockable to deter theft.
I have linked you to an install video showing the OutWay being installed on a similar vehicle.
If you'll be transporting women's bikes or bikes with sharply-angled top tubes, you might also consider a frame adapter bar like part # 64005. The bar spans the distance between the handlebar gooseneck and the seat post, which provides a secondary attachment point for the bike rack. This allows the bike to be carried level, which maximizes ground clearance.
