Towing with 2023 Corolla Cross

Both highway and local roads. It is rated to tow, so as long as you don't go over the rating it shouldn't hurt anything..

I bought a Curt hitch and wiring harness, reasonably simple install.

Hiya Joel. 1. Does the Hitch sit below the rear bumper or did you have to notch the bumper? (pics if you have them) and 2. Do you have to disable the rear sensors during towing to eliminate false alarms? Thanks
 
Yes, the hitch is below the bumper - only the receiver is visible. You do have to cut a very small piece of the lower bumper, but you wouldn't really see it unless you were under the car (even if you took the hitch off). I didn't disable any sensors, but my SE doesn't have parking assist.

Thanks for the info .... greatly appreciated.
 
Hiya Group.

For the Hitch install ....videos online seem to indicate the removal of the Bumper Facia .... a fairly intensive proceedure.

Has anyone installed without doing this? as in reach up between the facia and vehicle?

Thanks.
