I have confirmed with both our fit guide and the Thule Fit guide, and the Thule Passage 3 Bike # TH911XT that you reference, is confirmed as a fit for your 2009 Pontiac Vibe. It attaches to the rear of your vehicle using 6 attachment straps and uses the patented fit dial system to ensure a proper fit on your Vibe.

This bike rack is equipped with anti-sway cradles, and is rated for up to 105 pounds and can hold up to 3 bikes. You may also be interested in the Thule Passive Security Strap # TH533. This strap will loop around your your bike carrier and then close in the inside of your Vibe to deter theft. This strap is a nylon wrapped, steel cable.

If you happen to be transporting alternative, womens, or childrens bikes, a bike adapter bar is recommended. The Thule # TH982XT, is an adapter bar that holds the bike in a more level position and improves ground clearance during transport.

I have included links to the parts listed above, a couple of product demonstration videos, and a helpful article for your reference.
