Since your 2014 Nissan Pathfinder has that rear spoiler I do not recommend using the Thule OutWay, # TH45JV because it would put stress on that spoiler which it is not meant to support.

If you wanted to go with a hitch mounted bike rack that is also possible. If you need a hitch the most popular option is Curt hitch # C13126. I have linked a video showing how it installs. With the hitch installed you could then use a hitch mount bike rack such as the popular Camber, # TH9058. I have linked a video review of this rack as well.

If you will be carrying any bikes that do not have a top frame bar that goes straight across (like a typical men's bike would) then I recommend using bike adapter bar # 64005. 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 wife's bike would be at a severe angle and I would not be able to load my son's bike at all. I have linked a video showing how the adapter works.
