For the 2014 Ford C-Max, you'd need the Roadmaster Base Plate Kit, part # 524432-1.

You'll also need some other items to complete your towing system. You'll need:

-Safety cables like part # RM-643.
-A wiring solution so the taillights work along with the RV, like the wireless magnetic tow lights from Custer, part # LIW-LDTL.
-A supplemental braking system like the SMI Stay-In-Play DUO, part # SM99251

I'll link you to some of our help articles that contain much more information about recreationally flat towing a vehicle. Please check your owner's manual or with Ford to determine if your C-Max is capable of being flat towed without modification.
