Since your 2010 Nissan Rogue has that rear spoiler at the top of the rear hatch you will not be able to use the Thule Passage bike rack # TH901XT. But do not despair because there is a trunk mount bike rack that was designed to work with vehicles that have that rear spoiler and it is the only trunk mount that will not put pressure on the spoiler.

I recommend the Hollywood Racks Over-the-Top rack, # HRF2. It has an extra structure that allows the top straps to go up and over the rear spoiler so it is no longer a factor. I have included some links showing how it works.

If you will be carrying any bikes that do not have a top frame bar that goes straight across (like a typical mens bike would) then I recommend using bike adapter bar # HRBA-PRO. This will allow you to carry those bikes more level and will provide better ground clearance. I have to use these adapters and without them my wifes bike would be at a severe angle and I would not be able to load my sons bike at all.
