Question:
Im looking at purchasing the Drawtite Class III Trailer Hitch, part # 76144. I see for the 2019 Compass trailhawk there is some trimming of the undersurface of the fascia needed, is this true for the 2020 model as well? Kind regards

From what I could find, it looks like there is still trimming needed to install the Draw-Tite Max-Frame # 76144 on your 2020 Jeep Compass Trailhawk. I included an install video we did on a 2020 Compass for you to check out, but it is not a Trailhawk edition, unfortunately.
I double checked and it looks like the Curt # C13363 for the 2020 Jeep Compas will require trimming as well, but in a different spot. This is due to it being installed slightly different than the # 76144.
