Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2019 Acura RDX
Question:
Is there a trailer hitch that fits a 2019 Acura RDX? What about wiring? What size is the receiver?

Expert Reply:
The trailer hitch I strongly recommend for your 2019 Acura RDX is the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch # 76268 because it is a bolt-on installation that will not require drilling into your vehicle's frame to install and also because of Draw-Tite's strong reputation for making very high-quality hitches.
This Class III, 2" trailer hitch has a black powder coat finish to protect it from corrosion, a 3,500 lb towing capacity and 350 lb tongue weight capacity; it comes with a lifetime warranty. I have added a link to the installation manual of the Draw-Tite # 76268 for you to take a look at as well.
For wiring which will give you a 4-way connector and allow you to power your trailer's lights you need Wiring Harness # 119250KIT. It is also recommended you use Dielectric Grease for Electrical Connectors # 11755 to help prevent any type of corrosion in your connector, which will increase its durability and extend its lifespan.
I also recommend checking out Ball Mount Kit # 989900, which is for 2” hitches and may fulfill your towing needs in one tidy package; two ball mounts - one with a 3/4” rise or 2” drop and the other with a 2-3/4” rise or 4” drop - a 1-7/8” hitch ball, a 2” hitch ball, and a pin and clip.
