Best Trailer Brake Controller Recommendation for Vehicle with Knee Air Bags like Grand Cherokee
Question:
I want to mount Tekonsha Voyager Trailer Brake Controller - 1 to 4 Axles - Proportional Item # 39510 as shown in your video for the product on my 2018 Grand Cherokee but there is a knee air bag. Which way does the airbag door open and will the controller be in the way?

Expert Reply:
For vehicles with lower knee area air bags the best brake controller solution is the Redarc Tow Pro Elite part # 331-EBRH-ACCV2 as it does not install like a traditional brake controller which prevents air bag issues. The brain of the controller mounts out of sight and then you install a small knob on an interior panel where convenient like in the picture I attached. The correct harness for this controller to install in your 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee would then be the part # 3045-S.
I attached an install video for this controller in a similar 2014 Grand Cherokee as yours as well.
