$133.76A Class 3 hitch puts a bike rack, a cargo carrier, a utility trailer or a small boat behind your 2017 Nissan Pathfinder. CURT 13309 is a Class 3 hitch with a 2-inch receiver, rated to 6,000 lb gross trailer weight and 900 lb tongue weight, $289.76 CAD. Shipping is free anywhere in Canada.
CURT calls the install a novice job, about 40 minutes with hand tools, and the main body tucks up behind the bumper so only the receiver shows.
Trailer lights are a plug-in job on this one. CURT 56281 is the four-flat plug harness for the 2017 Nissan Pathfinder, $128.69 CAD, and it clicks into the factory connector so you're not splicing wires behind the bumper. A second harness fits as well; both are below.

2017 Nissan Pathfinder hitch questions
Which trailer hitch fits a 2017 Nissan Pathfinder?
CURT 13309 is a Class 3 hitch with a 2-inch receiver, rated to 6,000 lb gross trailer weight and 900 lb tongue weight.
How much can a 2017 Nissan Pathfinder tow with this hitch?
The hitch is rated to 6,000 lb gross trailer weight and 900 lb tongue weight, or 6,000 lb with a weight-distribution hitch. Your Pathfinder has its own tow rating in the owner's manual, and the lower number is your limit. A loaded bike rack counts against tongue weight too.
Do I need a wiring harness for the 2017 Nissan Pathfinder?
If a trailer is going on, yes. Brake and turn signals have to work, and CURT 56281 plugs into the factory connector so the trailer lights follow the Pathfinder's. Order it with the hitch and it's one install.
