Expert Reply:

At the rear of many Buick Enclave models, there is a cover that is in the center of the bumper fascia. If you view the attached video and at the 0:25 second mark you will see our tech removing the panel. The removal of this panel may not be applicable to your model vehicle.

For your 2017 Buick Enclave, I recommend the Curt Class III Trailer Receiver Hitch, # 13424. This hitch have the 2 x 2 inch receiver opening that will give up more choices of hitch accessories like bike racks and cargo carriers.

If you plan on towing a trailer with your Enclave, then I recommend the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness, # C55515. This harness will allow you to connect a 4-pole trailer connector that can be plugged into a trailer to run the trailer's trailer, turn signals, and brake lights.
