How Much Weight can 2016 Jeep Renegade Tow
Question:
I have the 2016 Dawn Of Justice Edition. Can I pull a U-Haul trailer with this hitch? If so, can you tell me the largest U-Haul trailer size I can pull with this hitch that would be safe on freeways?

Expert Reply:
U-Haul trailer size won't be as important as how much weight you would end up towing. You have to stay under the towing capacity of the vehicle. Which according to what I was able to find online would be 2,000 lbs.
For a hitch that is confirmed as a fit for your 2016 Jeep Renegade the Draw Tite part # 76021 is a confirmed fit that would work well.
Since you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.
If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
For trailer wiring you then would want the part # 118651 which is a confirmed fit.
