I have a 2013 Chevrolet Sonic RS and am interested to know if this hitch will fit given that the RS has a lowered suspension and a different rear facia?

I spoke to my contact at Draw-Tite and he confirmed for me that the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch # 24878 will work on the 2013 Chevy Sonic RS. He said the lower fascia may be different on the RS models but that it did not hang down any further than the non-RS models so it would not be an issue.

The lowered suspension does not matter either.
