Question:
I was looking at your Wiring Harness Ac57369 installation videos and none of the Compass vehicles rear access points look like mine. I have a 2021 Jeep Compass LIMITED 4x4. Do you sell a harness and class III hitch for my model? Last 6 of the VIN is: 561617. Thanks

Hello Dan; we do have a Class III hitch and wiring for your 2021 Jeep Compass Limited. For the hitch I recommend the etrailer # e48AR. All of the available hitches have a similar design but the etrailer hitch stands apart with the matte black finish. This gives it more of an OEM look and also helps hide dirt and scratches.
The correct wiring harness is the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C56369. This plugs into the connection points behind your tail lights so it won't be anything you see in the rear cargo area. If you need a ball mount, check out the etrailer Ball Mount # e67DR
