Is Rear Fascia Support Re-Attached When Installing DrawTite Hitch # 75709 on 2013 Ford Edge

Question:
In your video you make reference to removing the fascia center support. Does that ever get reconnected? I didnt see anything in the video about reconnection. Does it just flop around loose if its not reconnected?

Expert Reply:
The rear bumper fascia center support is not re-attached when installing the DrawTite Hitch # 75728 on a 2013 Ford Edge. The fastener that normally secures the fascia center support to the underside of the vehicle is re-attached to the vehicle but the support arm itself is to be folded up out of the way between the bumper cover and the actual bumper structure.
There should be no issue with excessive movement of the rear fascia since it is still secured at all other points. The receiver tube will also block any significant motion.
