Question:
Been told I willneed a Heat shield at the back of the Tailgate basket to keep the exhaust from burning stuff in the basket. DO you sell something like that. 2022 Kia Telluride with Reese 24x60 Cargo Carrier - 2 Hitch - 25x61 Outside

Hello Richard, thanks for getting in touch. Sadly, we do not offer any kind of heat shield that can be used with a cargo carrier. This is a fairly common issue especially on vehicles where the exhaust sticks straight back. The only real solution I can offer is to use a cargo basket with a bit of rise built into the shank, such as the 24x60 Curt Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches # C18152 which has 2-1/2" of rise. This can help the basket clear the exhaust and protect your cargo.

What's the difference between that one and the one I bought, can I exchange?
