Expert Reply:

We do have trailer hitches and wiring that will fit your 2016 Acura RDX. For a trailer hitch I recommend a Class III hitch because they are more robust and have a 2 inch receiver that is compatible with more accessories.

Curt Class III hitch # C13130 is a popular option for the RDX. I included a link to a video showing an example installation for you. For trailer wiring you can use wiring harness # 118569 to add a 4-Way flat connector to the back of the vehicle.

If you plan on doing some towing I recommend etrailer ball mount kit # EBMK4. It comes with a ball mount with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop, interchangeable ball set, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.

If the ball mount kit does not have the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, use the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
