Hitch Bike Rack for Model 3?

The Ecohitch is quite nice, you can remove the head and make the car seem like it does not have a hitch.

for carrying my bikes I use the 1up hitch, which does not touch the body of the bike.

How do the sensors work with the 1UP folded up? Did the car freak out? Also do you have the 2” hitch to accommodate the 3 piece rack?
After installing a hitch with a bike rack, on my first drive the car thinks there is something too close (displaying the red curved lines). It also gave me a warning stating that the blind side lane change was not available. When in reverse, there is a "stop" warning along with beeping because the car thinks an object is too close. I am wondering if anyone else has something to add as to how to use a hitch-installed bike rack in the Model 3. ??

Get the same warnings. I imagine in the future that autopilot may not work with the rack installed.
