Hey Jason, the install of the EcoHitch Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # EH99CR does not affect the front sensors or cruise control. What will you be using the front hitch for?

Thanks, I was hoping to put a bike or cargo basket on the front. From the picture showing the hitch installed I can see the hitch itself would not interfere with sensors. I'm mor worried about anything above the front bumper infront of the camera and sensors ,
