Will etrailer Hitch Interfere With Hands Free Liftgate On 2020 Infiniti QX60

Question:

I have the under the bumper foot swipe option on my 2020 QX60 which automatically opens the rear hatch by swiping your foot under the bumper. Does this hitch interfere with that feature operating properly?

Installation of the etrailer Hitch # e73AR will not result in the loss of the hands free liftgate feature on your 2020 Infiniti QX60. However, it will likely limit where the sensor works. Typically after installing a hitch you have to move your foot to the left or right of the receiver for it to trigger the sensor. Unfortunately, if you want a hitch on your vehicle there is really no way around this.
