Question:
Can you please help me with what tow hitch will fit a 2016 Kia Forte5 ex hatchback. I just tried having one installed they said it’s the wrong part, the one I ordered was 113683 I added a picture of the complications to why they could not install. It is not flush on the drive side rear there is a pipe that comes out, most places will not do anything but install. Please help I would like to get one on for my bike.

For your 2016 Kia Forte5 hatchback we have a trailer hitch that is a confirmed fit. I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" # C11395 which is a fit for 2014-2017 model years of the Forte5 hatchback. This hitch is only rated for Class I compatible bike racks and it requires stabilization strap # 18050 for that application.
Unfortunately, I can't find the hitch number you gave to let you know what that hitch fits.
If you do not already have a bike rack compatible, I recommend the Thule Doubletrack Pro XT Bike Rack # TH92BJ which is a popular option for a Class I compatible rack. I have linked the pages to all of your options to assist.
