Helpful Expert Reply:
The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13126 referenced in your question is a Class III hitch with a 2" x 2" receiver opening and will definitely be suitable with a Saris Platform Bike Rack on your 2016 Nissan Pathfinder.
Saris offers a fair amount of Platform Racks and choosing the best option for you would first depend on how many bikes you are planning on carrying. For a 1-2 bike carrier I recommend the Saris Freedom 2 Bike Platform Rack, part # SA4412B. This model has a folding mast which allows you to fold down the rack (after the bikes are removed) in order to access your vehicle's rear cargo area without removing the rack.
If you are looking to carry up to 4 bikes, the Saris Freedom 4 Bike Platform Rack # SA4414B will work great. It can secure 4 bikes of up to 35 pounds each and features the same folding feature as the 2-bike model.
I have provided video links for all of the products mentioned in this answer.
