Does Curt Hitch for 2023 Toyota RAV4 Allow Handsfree Liftgate to Function
Question:
I have a 2023 Rav4 Hybrid Limited and Id like to install the Curt trailer hitch CMF13416. This vehicle has a foot sensor to open the lift gate. After watching your video it looks like this hitch rides below the sensor and should not interfere with the sensor. It this the case? I should note that the Toyota OEM hitch requires cutting through the bumper and, without a lot of custom work, requires the removal of the sensor. What a screw-up by Toyota! Anyway, thanks!

Expert Reply:
The Curt hitch part # C13416 that fits your 2023 Toyota RAV4 does still allow your hands free liftgate to function. You would would just need to kick to sides of the hitch opening.
