The warranty of your 2017 Volkswagen Golf will not be voided as a result of installing the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C11412 because of the Magnuson–Moss Warranty Act (P.L. 93-637). The Magnuson–Moss Warranty Act in short states that manufactures cannot void the entire warranty of a vehicle simply because they installed an aftermarket component. I do however recommend you look this up for yourself though to be safe.

If you can tell me what you will be using the hitch for, I would be glad to offer some additional recommendations, otherwise I have attached a photo of the hitch installed on a similar vehicle to give you an idea of what it will look like.
