Recommended Bike Rack for a 2016 Jeep Cherokee Limited w/out a Hitch
Question:
I need a bike rack that will fit a 2016 Jeep Cherokee Limited. I do not have a hitch. Thanks!

Expert Reply:
Without a hitch you're going to be extremely limited in options and ability. The best choice for a bike rack will be the Yakima FullBack 3 Bike Rack item # Y02633. This bike rack mounts to your rear window and has a maximum capacity of 35 lbs per bike when transporting two bikes. It is capable of transporting three bikes but if you do this you'll be limited to 90 lbs total.
If you are needing to transport heavier bikes or don't like the window mounted style, you'll need to add a hitch like the etrailer Hitch item # e62TR. This hitch is custom fit and mounts to your 2016 Jeep Cherokee Limited with included hardware.
With a hitch installed you can use the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE Bike Rack item # HLY84FR which has an 80 lbs per bike capacity.
I have linked review videos below for all of these parts so you can see what they look like when installed and see their functions demonstrated.
