Will Handsfree Liftgate of 2021 Toyota Venza Work with Trailer Hitch Installed
Question:
Does the installation of a hitch on my 2021 Venza require disabling the kick sensor for the power liftgate? I have read conflicting answers. Some say that the kick sensor wont work after the hitch is installed others say that it blocks the straight-on aspect of the sensor, but that it will still work if you kick to the right or left of the hitch.

We've not had any customers come back and have issues with the hands free lift gate of their 2021 Toyota Venza after the install of the Draw Tite hitch part # DT46MR you referenced. At worst you might have to kick to either side of the hitch opening. This is also true for the Curt that fits your vehicle as well part # C89UR.
