Here's the best picture I could find:

it looks like it cuts into the bottom of the bumper. I do know the aftermarket hitch sits lower, just under the bumper. Another owner on a another Quest forum mentioned the aftermarket hitch does scrape the ground when going into driveways and the like.

I'm afraid I don't know about the dealer hitch as I couldn't find a Quest with one on it! Talk about low availability!
 
So I'm now trying to add a (non-dealer) trailer hitch to my Quest, and can't find anyone local who knows them.
 
If anyone has added a trailer hitch (dealer or not) to your 2011 Quest, please chime-in and tell us the specifics and how well it worked. Thanks!

#5 of 6 2011 Quest hitch installation by cutchy

Hitch installed at Dealership requires bumper removal and cutout. I believe it took 2 techs at least 2 hours. They also had not installed one before. Had it included in van purchase price. It has 9 inches of ground clearance with no loads. I use a 5 to 6" offset receiver to get trailer tongue up off ground. Hope this helps.

We have a dealer installed Nissan trailer hitch on our 2012 LE (same as 2011). The bottom of the hitch is flush with the bottom of the rear bumper. Clearance on a dealer installed Nissan hitch should not be a problem.
