Does Hitch Install on 2019 Volkswagen Golf Alltrack Void Warranty
Updated 07/23/2019 | Published 07/22/2019
Question:
Why do you recommend trailer hitches for the Golf Alltrack when VW says it is not recommended to tow ANYTHING with this car? I think putting a trailer hitch on it could void the warranty.

A lot of people use trailer hitches to carry bike racks or cargo carriers which is why we offer trailer hitches for vehicles like your 2019 Volkswagen Golf Alltrack like the Draw Tite part # 24949.
When you install an aftermarket part on your vehicle like a trailer hitch in this case, you are protected by the Magnuson–Moss Warranty Act. This act states, in part, that unless the installation and the part caused a problem then the warranty cannot be voided. I recommend looking it up online.
