Will Curt Trailer Hitch C11367 Block Lift Gate Sensor On 2017 BMW 440 Gran Coupe?

Question:

I have a 2017 Bmw 440 Gran coupe. After installing a hitch will the kick to open the truck function still work. I the future I want to purchase an Audi A7/S7, MB CLS, BMW 650/850 Gran Coupe. Do you have hitches for this vehicles and will the hitch impede and functionality of the vehicle? I will primarily be using the hitch to car 2 bikes.

With the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11367 installed on your 2017 BMW 440 Gran Coupe you will still be able to use the lift gate sensor to open the rear lift gate, though you will need to place your foot on either side of the receiver.

The # C11367 will not fit any of the other vehicles mentioned, but if you can tell me what Year/Make/Model of the vehicle you purchase I would be happy to see if there is a hitch available.

If you do not already have a bike rack I recommend Saris SuperClamp EX Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Wheel Mount # SA4025F which is compatible with Class I receivers like the # C11367 and will accommodate two bikes weighing up to 60lbs each.

You will need to use stabilizing strap # 18050 with the bike rack to not void the warranty of the hitch.

I included videos of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
