Hello Jeffrey, thanks for reaching out. It is definitely possible to use the Tekonsha Voyager Brake Controller # TK29ER with your 2019 Volkswagen Tiguan, provided it is equipped with a 7-way trailer plug.
Is your Tiguan already wired with a 7-way? If not, use the Tekonsha T-One # 118811, along with the # ETBC7 install kit. These two kits will contain everything you need to add a 7-way, including all the necessary wires for the brake controller. You could use really any brake controller with this setup, but if you prefer the Voyager, it will work great.
I linked a few install videos for you below which you should find helpful if you plan to install this yourself. You will also find the link to our installer locator if you want to find a shop to do it for you.
Leave a reply below with any other questions or comments and I will get back to you.
