Will Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Allow Hands-Free Tailgate to Function on 2017 Honda CR-V
Question:
I have a touring model 2017 Honda CRV, will the tailer hitch block the censor that allows you to put your foot under the rear of the CRV to open the hatch or is there a conversion censor. Thank you

Helpful Expert Reply:
The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76128 referenced in your question, which is confirmed to fit your 2017 Honda CR-V, will still allow the hands-free tailgate to function. After the hitch is installed, you will just need to kick to either side of the hitch opening to activate the sensor.
I have attached an installation video on your vehicle for you to check out.
I have also included a couple of links that will take you to our available selection of hitch-mounted bike racks and cargo carriers that you can look through.
