Is the Thule Passage 2 Compatible with a 2021 Subaru Crosstrek?
Question:
Hi there, I have this great bike rack I had bought from you all I guided my secret Santa here! for use on my 2006 Audi A3 wagon but had to replace that car and would love to use it on my new Subaru Crosstrek 2021 Limited. I checked the list on the manual and it looks like it might not fit and it appears that maybe its about the spoilerinch piece that would be the problem. Is there any way to add/modify or adjust the mounting so the Thule would work? While the shape of the car is definitely different, the arrangement is similar and was hoping that I could salvage what is a fairly brand-new rack to transport our bicycles. Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated!

I have some great news! I confirmed with Thule that your Thule Passage 2 Bike Carrier # TH910XT will fit on your 2021 Subaru Crosstrek. However, the main caution is the amount of pressure from the tightening straps using the fit dial. The fit should be taut against the spoiler, but not to the point that it is extremely tight. The fit dial setting for the Passage 2 is 9. I went ahead and attached a video of a vehicle that has a similar spoiler as the 2021 Subaru Crosstrek.
