Yes, the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT42MR you mention does in fact fit your 2022 Acura MDX.

This hitch has a maximum towing capacity of 6,000-lbs, a maximum tongue weight of 900-lbs, and has a sturdy square tube design that features an easy bolt-on design.

Additionally, if you're interested in a complete towing setup you're also going to need a set of wiring # C59236 as well as a ball mount kit # 989900.
