Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver For 2017 Buick Enclave

Question

Question:

Hello I have a 2017 Buick Enclave and I need a hitch. Most of them say that the facia needs to be removed and may not go back on. Is this the bottom trim on the bumper? Thanks

For your 2017 Buick Enclave, I recommend the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # 75528 which will require the removal of the facia door panel. This can be trimmed and reattached if you desire. I've attached a couple photos of this panel removed for you to see.
