Question:

Will installing a trailer hitch on my 2021 Alfa Romeo Stelvio mess up the hands free liftgate feature?

asked by: Kay

Expert Reply:

Installing the Draw-Tite # 76199 Class III hitch on your 2021 Alfa Romeo Stelvio will prevent the liftgate sensors under the center of the bumper from picking up movement, but if you wave your foot a few inches to one side or the other of the hitch receiver opening, the hands free liftgate will work just fine for you.

If you'll be towing with the hitch, you'll need a few other parts to complete your towing system. For a trailer wiring harness, use part # 118777. For a ball mount, use # 2753 and # 19260 for a 1-7/8 or # 63845 for a 2 inch trailer ball.
