Does Installing Hitch on 2018 Nissan Rogue Require Removal of Bumper
Question:
I have a 2018 nissan rouge with a rear metal bumper guard. Do I have to Uninstall it to put on a tow hitch and bike rack?

Expert Reply:
Although installing a hitch like # C13204 would require trimming or removing the under body panels (if so equipped), installing the hitch would not require removing the bumper beam or bumper cover. Some hitches will take the place of the bumper beam, that that isn't the case with the hitches available for the 2018 Nissan Rogue.
The US manufactured # C13204 is what I'd recommend. If you click the provided link, you can see a video showing the entire installation of a 2018 Nissan Rogue like yours.
