Yes, you can definitely use the Rola Rail Extreme DFE Series Roof Rack R5015 and etrailer J-Style Kayak Carrier # e98878 on your 2017 Volkswagen Jetta Sedan being flat towed behind your motorhome. This is a great way to get your kayak to your destination without trying to find a way to hoist it up on the roof of your motorhome.
If you'd like to make loading the kayak easier you can use a roller system like the Yakima HandRoll Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs # Y04082-2 so that you can easily load your boat from the back of your vehicle.
I have attached some review videos for you to check out.
