Well - before we all get excited about a free trailer hitch...
I had my 2004 Jeep Liberty in for service yesterday and also asked the dealer to perform recall N46. When I picked up my Jeep, I was told by the Service Consultant - the trailer hitch is not actaully to be used for towing, only for structural reinforcement and safety - HUH?
Why install a trailer hitch that cannot be used for towing?
So for confirmation I called the Chrysler Group Recall Assistance Center phone # on the mailer and was told the exact same thing. There is no wiring harness attached to the hitch since it is not intended to be used for towing. If I choose to install the wiring harness and tow, that is on me.
I have to wonder...if I sell this Jeep - how will the next owner know that the trailer hitch is only for decoration?
