Excellent and prompt customer service! When I first ordered my product it wasn’t in stock— staff were quick to let me know and offered me comparable products. I ended up waiting for my original order and shipping quick and they stayed in touch with ideas! Thule: The instructions could be a little more detailed. I ended up watching YouTube videos to help me instal. Overall it was easy, and this was the first rack I’ve ever installed and I did it by myself! I was surprised to learn the bike rack is in no way secured inside your vehicle, so.. I store it in my garage when it’s on.

Positive: The product is well thought out and works for a wide range of automotive vehicles. It comes with interesting dampers that i think work. Instructions seem to be translated from another language, but are quite good, accompanying pictures make installation straightforward. A test drive over speed bumps shows that the rack will support the bike for all travel needs. It can be disassembled , collapsed and stored in the trunk. Downside: The rack is made for the classic triangular shaped frame: horizontal cross bar, "male" bike. For bikes without the horizontal bar, mounting is a little less satisfactory. Such a bike can only be mounted on the outside mounts. Cannot use the damper on one side. Picture shows the mounting. as to a design solution, maybe brackets could be replaced with smaller profile, some adjustability? however, as it is, vibration control is good and adjustability with smaller profile would have vibration concerns.

Kuat Trunk Bike Racks Review - 2012 Nissan Murano
Speaker 1: Today on our 2012 Nissan Murano, we're gonna be doing a test fit on the Kuat Highline Trunk Mount 2 Bike Rack. That's part number HIT2B. It's also available in silver with part number HIT2S. Now, you can get both colors in a three bike version if you like, so that would be HIT3B or 3S.So, I've already got it loaded up just to give you a good idea of what it looks like and how it's gonna hold our bikes. It'll work with a wide variety of bikes, and it holds our bikes with three points of contact. We've got two ratchet style straps for our top tube, and then one for our seat post tube.
Nissan Murano Bike Rack Questions
- The trunk mounted bike rack I recommend for your 2019 Nissan Murano is the Kuat Highline part # HIT2B because it's very lightweight, has a large pad that contacts the vehicle to better distribute the weight of the bikes and rack, is very adjustable which makes mounting and loading/unloading very easy and because we had the chance to test fit this rack on a similar Murano and we found that it fit and worked great. Check out the review video I attached for more info.
If you plan...
view full answer... - I may have a solution for you, but the Thule Passage Trunk Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - Hanging Style # TH910XT cannot carry a bike over 35-lbs because of the way the weight is distributed across the bars. I'll also add that there is not a trunk mounted bike rack that can be used to carry an E-bike that weighs 50-lbs; you may be able to remove the battery pack to get below that weight, which would allow you to use the Passage but it's highly unlikely.
The only solution that allows...
view full answer... - The best value trunk mounted bike rack we have for your 2018 Nissan Murano is the Kuat Highline part # HIT2S overall. You get one of the nicest trunk mounted bike racks for just a little more than the really cheap options. For as nice of a bike as you have this would be your best value that would still work really well.
The cheapest rack though is the Malone RunWay 3 part # MPG2142 which is a confirmed fit. Since you have a womens frame bike you'll want a bike adapter bar...
view full answer... - Since you don't want to install a hitch on your 2018 Nissan Murano the best way to transport bikes will be with a trunk mounted bike rack. These racks attach to the rear door/hatch of the vehicle and provide a similar style rack as a hitch bike rack without requiring you to install a hitch. The trade off is that they end up touching the paint of the vehicle but as long as you keep the rack and vehicle clean you won't have any issues.
For a trunk rack confirmed as a fit check...
view full answer... - Since you do not have a hitch installed on your 2017 Nissan Murano, a trunk-mounted bike rack is definitely the way to go! Yakima Full Back 3 # Y02633 is a confirmed fit for your SUV and it is made to work well with factory spoilers so you won't have an issue there.
This bike rack can safely hold 3 bikes weighing up to 35lbs each (limited to 90lbs total when carrying 3 bikes). The carrier itself is fairly lightweight, making it very easy to install and remove with one person....
view full answer... - I spoke with Thule to confirm the FitDial of the Thule Gateway Pro 2, part # TH88VR, on a 2017 Nissan Murano. The correct setting is 10.
I've linked to a video review of this bike rack below.
view full answer... - We do have Yakima trunk mount bike racks that fit your 2016 Nissan Murano, but the HangOut 2 Bike Rack # Y02637 unfortunately isn't one of them.
Instead you'll want to take a look at the Thule OutWay # TH45JV. It is the absolute easiest rack to install and comes with lock for the rack and the bikes to deter theft.
If you were wanting something more along the lines of the HangOut then I recommend the Thule Passage # TH910XT instead.
From what I could find it looks like...
view full answer... - I believe the review that you were reading were about the older version of this rack, the Thule Raceway PRO 2-Bike Rack # TH9001PRO. The current version, the Thule OutWay # TH45JV only weighs 13 pounds and is super easy to install and remove. The OutWay is a great option that will fit on your 2015 Nissan Murano. One advantage that you have is the Thule trunk mount bike racks come fully assembled, it doesn't get any easier than that to assembly.
The Thule OutWay # TH45JV...
view full answer... - If you need to transport only 2 bikes on your 2015 Nissan Murano then you have several trunk-mount rack options from Thule, all of which can be seen on the included link.
Of all of these racks, my favorite is the OutWay # TH45JV which locks to both secure the rack to your Murano and your loaded bikes to the rack. This outstanding carrier is among the most user-friendly trunk racks on the market. It uses only 2 rubber coated straps to secure to your car, rather than the 4-6...
view full answer... - I checked with Thule and the Thule Gateway Pro Bike Rack part # TH88VR that you referenced has been confirmed as a fit for your 2015 Nissan Murano so it would work well for you.
I attached a review video for this rack for you to check out as well.
If you plan on carrying any women's or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Swagman Easy-Out Women's and Alternative Frame Bike Adapter # 64005 to provide a horizontal...
view full answer... - One of the best all in one packages for your 2014 Nissan Murano is the Thule GateWay, part # TH45JV. This rack can handle two 33 pound bikes, and comes with integrated bike locks and a security system for the rack itself. Additionally, its straps retract back into the body, making it a breeze to store. At only 13 pounds and using a fit dial for quick and easy installation, you'll have no trouble putting it on and taking it off as needed (And even keeping it in the trunk!)

view full answer... - You'll need to use a hitch mounted bike rack, as there aren't any trunk mount bike racks that are compatible with your Murano.
For a hitch, I'd recommend the Curt Class III hitch, part # 13577. For a bike rack, Swagman offers the reasonably priced yet well equipped Trailhead which is available in a 2 bike model # S63360, 3 bike model # S63365 or 4 bike model, as part # S63380. The racks include an anti rattle hitch bolt, but I'd recommend adding a locking hitch bolt/cable lock...
view full answer... - Both the Thule Passage 2 trunk bike rack # TH910XT and their upmarket OutWay 2 rack # TH45JV are confirmed to fit properly on your 2013 Nissan Murano. Both racks feature Thule's amazing attachment system for fast accurate installation on your Murano.
The advantages of the OutWay are that it includes locks both for the rack and for your bikes, and that it uses only 2 rubber coated straps rather than 6 nylon straps. This means easier installation.
view full answer... - I attached a link to a page that has all of the trunk racks we offer that are confirmed fits for your 2012 Nissan Murano.
I recommend the Yakima Fullback trunk rack part # Y02633 because we recently asked our install and demo team to pick their favorite trunk rack based on performance and ease of install/use and they all picked this trunk rack. You will really like this rack. The four easily adjustable straps will make it easier to install than the other racks that use 6 straps...
view full answer... - We do have trunk mount bike racks that are a confirmed fit your 2012 Nissan Murano. I recommend going with the Hollywood Racks Over-the-Top Bike Carrier, which is specially designed for vehicles with hatchbacks with spoilers like your Murano.
For the 2-bike carrier you will want part # HRF2. For a 3-bike rack you will want part # HRF2-3.
This Over-the-Top bike rack lets you carry up to 3 bikes on the back of your vehicle without the fear of the rack's mounting straps or...
view full answer... - Yes, the Yakima HangOut 2 Bike Rack # Y02637 will fit on your 2012 Nissan Murano. According to the installation instructions for this bike rack, if the leading edge of the hatch or trunk has trim, you must use the Anchor Strap configuration, where the hooks hang from inside the vehicle. Otherwise, the hooks just clip on at the top. A rubber coating on the hooks prevents scratches or other damage to the finish on your vehicle. We do not have any glass hatch hook adapters for the...
view full answer... - The Thule OutWay 2 Bike Rack, part # TH45JV, can carry 2 bikes and will fit your 2011 Nissan Murano. It has a total weight capacity of 66 lbs.
The Thule OutWay 3 Bike Rack, part # TH56BV, that you have referenced will not work on your Murano. Thule does not recommend a 3 bike trunk mounted bike rack for your vehicle.
Yakima does list the Yakima HangOut 3 Trunk Bike Rack, part # Y02638, as a fit for your vehicle but it does require the use of the glass hatch hooks in place...
view full answer... - To carry 3 bikes using a trunk mounted carrier on your 2011 Nissan Murano you can use the Hollywood Racks Over-the-Top rack # HRF2-3.
This rack has an additional upper arm piece that moves the top straps up and over that spoiler so no weight is put on it (since the spoiler is not meant to support weight). I have included a link to a video that shows 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...
view full answer... - Yes, the Thule Passage, # TH910XT, is recommended for use on your 2011 Nissan Murano as long as it is not a CrossCabriolet model. This is a good quality rack that will work well for you. I added a link to all of the trunk mount bike racks that will fit on the 2011 Murano.
Another rack you might want to consider for ease of installation and removal is the Thule OutWay 2 Bike Carrier, # TH45JV, which also fits the your vehicle.
You may also need the Thule Bike Adapter, # TH982XT,...
view full answer... - According to Thule there are 4 trunk mounted bike racks that will fit your 2011 Nissan Murano. First, you can use the Passage 2, # TH910XT. This is a very economical bike rack, part of the previous generation of racks.
If you want to get into the newer racks, Thule also offers the Gateway 2, # TH9006, and the Archway 2, # TH9009. These two racks a very similar, but I give the edge to the Archway because it has an integrated cable lock to secure the bikes to the rack.
