To flat tow your 2022 Ford Escape Titanium Hybrid you would need a base plate kit, tow bar, tow bar wiring, safety cables and a supplemental braking system. The only things we have confirmed to fit at this point are the base plate kit, tow bar and safety cables. We do not have tow bar wiring or a supplemental braking system confirmed to fit yet at this point (3-3-2022).

You can use the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM39FR and Roadmaster Nighthawk All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar # RM-676 (this tow bar includes the safety cables).

We are constantly adding more fitments as we get them from the manufacture, I would periodically check back on the tow bar wiring and braking system. You will also want to be sure to consult the owners manual for your Escape to ensure all recommendations/requirements for flat towing are met.

Thank you for following up, we do in fact have a complete flat tow package for your 2022 Ford Escape Titanium Hybrid. You can use the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM39FR and Roadmaster Nighthawk All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar # RM-676 that was mentioned previously for your base plate kit, tow bar and safety cables. You can then use the Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267 for the tow bar wiring (you will need the Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit for Towed Vehicles # RM-156-25 for this as well). Then you can use the Demco SBS Stay-IN-Play DUO Supplemental Braking System # SM99251 for a braking system (this will require the Roadmaster Brake-Lite Relay Kit for Towed Vehicles # RM-88400 for your vehicle). That would provide you with the 5 main parts needed to flat tow your 2022 Ford Escape Titanium Hybrid. You may also need a high-low adapter. I have included a help article that goes over how to determine if one is needed and I have linked out selection of adapters so you can choose the correct one.

The 2021 and 2022 Ford Escape models are the same generation so if I had to guess I would say that the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit #BLU55XR from a 2021 will fit a 2022. At this point in time (February 2022) the only base plate kit that is confirmed to…
