Expert Reply:
The under body panel in question will have to either be removed or trimmed to install a trailer hitch on your 2017 Honda Accord. The area trimmed is approximately 1 inch wide by 6 inches long. I have included a picture from the instructions for the Curt Trailer Hitch instructions for this vehicle, # C11496.
