Question:
does the etrailer e75ZR trailer hitch block the kick sensor on a 2024 toyota Highlander limited hybrid
asked by: Gary L
Expert Reply:
Yes, it does Gary but only right around the 2" receiver. What you'll need to do is kick to the left and right of it to find a spot that isn't blocked.
The etrailer Hitch item # e75ZR is custom fit for your 2024 Toyota Highlander Limited hybrid and bolts to it with included hardware. I really like this hitch because the crosstube mounts entirely behind your rear bumper. This leaves only the 2" receiver and chain hanger bracket visible.
I have linked an installation video below so you can see how to get this hitch set up. Please feel free to reach out in the comment box below if you have any additional questions or concerns.

Hey Gary, how did the kick sensor work once you tried moving your foot to the sides of the hitch receiver? Your feedback could really help others setting up the same hitch on their Highlander.
