Question:
Hello, I am interested in a 2023 Kia Telluride tow hitch and wiring package that includes trailer brake controller which means a 7 pin wiring harness. I know Kia had not released the OEN version so what are my options? I need a trailer hitch by May 15th.

Expert Reply:
For your 2023 Kia Telluride I recommend the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e45ZR. I prefer this one as it has the matte black powder coat finish which I find looks better. It also has a hidden cross tube providing for a clean factory appearance.
The Universal Wiring Harness # 22551 will provide you with a 7-way connector and all the wiring to properly install it and a Brake Controller # TK63VR on your Telluride. If you prefer to not have a large controller on your dash the Redarc Liberty # RED24FR will connect to the Tekonsha connector on the harness using an Adapter # 331-TPH-017.
You will need a Mounting Bracket # 18138 to secure the 7-way to your Palisade. We also have the Curt Bracket # C58000 if you do not want to drill into your rear fascia to secure the 7-way.
