Will Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver for 2021 Lexus UX 250h Work with Hands Free Liftgate Feature
Question:
Would installing the C88VV trailer hitch for the 2021 Lexus UX250h impede the hands-free power-liftgate sensor under the vehicle?

Expert Reply:
The hands free liftgate compatibility is one of the most popular questions we get asked about trailer hitches. Unfortunately, no matter which hitch you go with like the Curt Class 3 Hitch # C88VV which is a great option, there is going to be some interference as the cross tube mounts right where the sensor points. That said, it doesn't mean the sensors won't work at all, it just means they are going to be a bit more finicky and harder to pickup. There really isn't a way around this though and for most people, giving up some ease of use is worth the benefit a trailer hitch offers.
