Expert Reply:
The Draw-Tite trailer hitch, # 75712, fits all styles of the 2012 Jeep Patriot including Latitude models. I have included a link to the installation instructions and a link to a video that shows a typical installation for you.
If you plan on doing some towing I recommend the etrailer ball mount kit # EBMK4. It comes with a ball mount, an interchangeable ball set, a hitch pin with clip, and a carrying bag. For trailer wiring, use # 118552. I have included some links explaining the installation of the wiring as well.
