Expert Reply:
Per the User's Guide, the Electronic Stability Control (ESC) on your 2017 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk should not be turned off when towing. The Full Off mode is intended for off-road use and should not be used on any public roadways.
You do need to make sure that you have a complete tow package for your vehicle. I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch, # C13172 and wiring harness # C56208.
