  • Best Looking Trailer Hitch for a 2018 Acura MDX
  • The etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver part # e98840 is the best looking, most OEM like trailer hitch available for a 2018 Acura MDX.

  • What Would Cause 7-Way Trailer Connectors on Truck and Trailer to Melt When Connected
  • Sounds like you had a massive short to ground on the 12 volt accessory circuit of the trailer wiring. This circuit is in the 1:00 position of the female connector on the truck.
