I would be happy to help you find a hitch for your 2017 Nissan Rogue and show the installation process and how to find a local installer. I recommend the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver item # e98846 this is a class III hitch with a 2' x 2" receiver. This hitch will give you the highest capacity and most options for accessories. It is custom fit and bolts directly to your Rogue with included hardware. We had a 2017 Rogue in our shop recently and we made a video installing this hitch. I have linked it below along with the instructions so you can see the process.
If you are not wanting to tackle this installation on your own then you will want to go to the product page of the etrailer item # e98846 hitch and scroll down to below the product pictures and videos to the blue Locate installers near me link. Once you click on this link you will need to input your zip code and you will get a list of reputable installers in your area.
If you plan on doing any towing you will also need a wiring harness item # 118480 and a ball mount kit item # C45534.
I have linked an installation video for the wiring harness as well. If you have any further questions email me directly and I will be happy to help you.
