I asked at the dealership about a trailer hitch, they said I need the car reprogrammed after the hitch install.
The harness can no longer be linked to the rear lights, but it goes straight into the fuse box. They say if you hook it up directly to the rear lights, you will start blowing fuses and other components.
Of course, they will reprogram it, but this will cost extra. So I am looking at $283 for the hitch (not even the 2"), $85 for the harness, about 1 hour labor (at over $100/hour rate), plus the reprogramming, plus the 13% tax on everything.
So this will be probably around $550-$600 for a **** hitch??
