Expert Reply:

Yes, the Thule OutWay 2 Bike Trunk Mount Carrier, part # TH45JV, will fit your 2011 Jeep Patriot. The rear wiper can not be used when the bike rack is mounted.

This bike rack is one of Thules newest designs. It installs quickly because it has only 2 retractable cables rather than 4-6 straps of other carriers. This makes for fast installation and a clean look. I am including a link to a video review of this bike rack.

If you will be carrying any women's or children's bikes that do not have a top frame bar that goes straight across from handle bars to seat post, I recommend adding the Thule Bike Adapter Bar, part # TH982XT, to carry the bikes more level. I have included a video review of the Thule adapter bar.
