Does Draw Tite Hitch for 2018 Ford Edge Sport Allow Hands Free Liftgate to Open
Question:
I have a 2018 Ford Edge Sport and was looking at Code: 75234. Does it interfere with the foot sensor to open the back hatch? Thank you

Expert Reply:
For your 2018 Ford Edge Sport the Draw Tite hitch part # 75234 is a confirmed fit and will still allow your hands free liftgate sensors to function properly. You'll just have to kick to the sides of the hitch opening.
For your vehicle trailer wiring, I recommend the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118677.
You will also need a ball mount to tow a trailer. I recommend the etrailer.com Ball Mount Kit for 2" Hitches - 7,500 lbs # 989900. This kit will give you two draw bar options with different rise or drop options and two hitch ball options to ensure you can tow a trailer level. I've attached an article about determining proper rise or drop for your ball mount.
