Your 2017 Jeep Cherokee does need MOPAR part # 68321424AB to flat tow it. We do not carry the harness and to the best of my knowledge it's only available from a dealership.
We do have the rest of the parts you need though. Here's a list of what I recommend:
Demco Commander II tow bar, part # DM9511012
Demco tabless base plates, part # DM9519307
Stay-IN-Play DUO braking system, part # SM99251
Plug in wiring harness, part # HM56208
I've linked install videos of each part for you. I've also linked some help articles on flat towing. One of them is on high-low adapters which you might need depending on the height of the Jeep compared to your motorhome's hitch.
