Trailer Hitch and Bike rack Recommendations for a 2011 Jeep Compass
Question:
will this fit a 2011 jeep compass with a air scoop on hatchback
asked by: Jan
Expert Reply:
The rear spoiler on your 2011 Jeep Compass is going to prevent the safe mounting of a trunk mount bike rack. The safest way to carry bikes on your vehicle is to use a trailer hitch and hitch mount bike rack. The most popular option for a hitch is # 75712. I have included some links on this hitch for you.
The most popular 2 bike hitch mounted rack is # S64670. This is a platform style rack that holds the bikes at the wheels and frame. I have included some links on this rack for you as well.
