Tow Bar Recommendation for Flat Towing a 2015 Chevy Malibu
Question:
I have a 2015 Malibu LT 4 cyl and I have a Falcon 5250 tow bar I have used for 12 years. I was advised by my RV dealership that I should probably replace my old tow bar with a new one. I have just had Roadmaster Base Plates installed by Camping World so I need a tow bar that will be compatible with the arms coming from the car to the tow bar. I believe the Falcon 2 - the RM-520 is the proper replacement but I want Roadmaster to tell me that is the one before I order and get something I cannot use. My present tow bar is operating good except one arm will not come out of the square part of the arm when it is retracted all the way in. So tell me what I need: a Falcon 2, RM-520. If this is the one I will not need any changes to my base plate setup? Is this Correct.

Expert Reply:
The Roadmaster Falcon Tow Bar part # RM-520 would be a great choice for a new tow bar. This is one of our most popular tow bars that would work great with the Roadmaster base plate kit you have installed on your 2015 Chevy Malibu, part # RM-523178-4.
