Yes! Curt trailer hitch # C13171 is indeed listed as a fit for your 2010 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk. I have linked a video showing an example installation for you.
This hitch is a great option for a bike rack. The 2 inch receiver will afford you many options if you do not already have a bike rack. If you need a bike rack recommendation just let me know how many bikes you will need to carry.
If you do plan on towing in the future I recommend etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.
If the ball mount kit does not have the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, use the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
And for trailer wiring you can use # 118779 to add a 4-Way flat connector to the rear of the vehicle. I have linked the instructions for you.
