Hey Bogdan! You can use a lock like the etrailer Trailer Coupler Latch Lock # e98886 to keep your coupler secure while hooked up to your 2022 Sierra 1500. However, this really depends on your style of coupler. This can run through a trigger style latch or you may have a pin hole that will allow you to run it through the body of the coupler. Take a look at the pictures below. What kind of coupler do you have?
