Expert Reply:
We haven't had any reports regarding the hands-free liftgate not working on a 2020 Lexus NX 300 once the Curt # C12172 hitch was installed. If there will be any interference, it'll be right where the receiver tube is located. If you try waving your foot in the area a few inches right of left of the receiver opening, the sensors will pick up the movement of your foot and the hatch will open for you.
Then for a wiring harness you'll need the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C56268.
