Expert Reply:
I checked the owner's manual of a 2017 GMC Terrain for you and it states that you must remove the "Discrete Logic Ignition Switch" fuse from the instrument panel fuse before towing to prevent battery drain. This is fuse #32 in the instrument panel fuse not to be confused with the engine bay fuse panel.
In order to remove said fuse I recommend using a bypass since it does not require you to physically pull the fuse each time, but rather flick a switch. I recommend the Roadmaster FuseMaster Fuse Bypass part # RM76511 which offers a plug-in install.
