Feedback on if Liftgate Sensor is Removed on 2023 Acura MDX
Updated 04/19/2023 | Published 04/18/2023 >
Question:
Have you gotten any feedback from 2023 Acura MDX Advance owners on how this installs with the kick lift gate sensor, and if they are still able to use it? Would you happen to have pictures of this installed on an MDX with the sensor maybe from the bottom?

Expert Reply:
Most customers have stated when installing a hitch like the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e27KR on their Acura MDX they have had to remove the liftgate sensor entirely. Not all have though, as some were able to relocate it, but the only specifics we have gotten are a customer who installed the # e27KR, removed the sensor bracket, and cleverly relocated it directly to the hitch (see photo below).
