Trailer Hitch

[Tunes4us]

Did you find a way to work around this? We are having the same problem...

There are plenty of 4-7 adaptors around but if you have trailer brakes it’s going to be an issue and require running wires.

The fact that this vehicle isn't offered with a factory 7 pin connector and full 5000lbs towing limit is ridiculous. In all honestly, this, the black wheels, and black headliner have prevented me from buying one here in Canada. I shouldn't have to convince myself that I will enjoy a $50,000+ purchase even though it doesn't have the features I'd like

Trailer hitch is now available in Canada. Customer cost is $505 (Hitch only) and ive been quoted 1 and 1.5 hrs labour for the install.

I bought the OEM hitch the other day and had it installed professionally, around 500 all in.

OEM or this one? Attache-remorque 50025 de Classe 3 - SRG Attache Remorque

OEM I believe. It's from the dealer. Called multiple.

OEM, box has KIA logo on it.

So Palisade has tow package included in top trim, cooling transmission(something that telluride doesn’t have?) and sway control(is that just different wording for auto level suspension), they pore lack proper wiring and claim that can tow 5000lbs which is false and misleading, because you can’t tow 4000+lbs trailer SAFELY!

Did you get a 7 pin wiring harness

The Telluride also has sway control. See “Trailer stability assist (TSA) system” on page 5-43 in the owner’s manual. It is different than the self-leveling suspension.

Following this thread for future updates. Looking at a Telluride to replace my 2002 4runner. I currently tow a 3500lb, single axle, electric brake 7x12 enclosed trailer. My 4runner is rated at 5000lbs, and 500lb tongue. My trailer tongue weight is usually around 400-440lbs. I'm hoping someone will test a similar setup on the Telluride I suppose i could always keep the 4runner just for towing, but i'd like to use the power of the Telluride.

Brake controllers and 7 pins are a relatively easy hurdle for any vehicle, just need to find the brake switch wire, and run the power lines.

Unfortunately it's in the manual that to tow 5000 lbs you must have a trailer brake.

Hey great video on YouTube! My question is will your work void the warranty? I'm having a hell of a time getting them to work with me

Hey guys, haven't chimed in here for a few weeks, but ended up becoming a "Palisader" and purchased a Limited yesterday from the dealership. But I've been posting here quite a bit and since the cars inside are very similar, we can share info on our common goal of getting this 7-pin situation and tow hitch weight situation under control!

I see that there is a 12-pin connection for the factory wiring harness. Has anyone looked at the tech specs and seen if perhaps one of those wires is the speed controller and brake light needed for a true 7 pin connection? See attached picture from the Hyundai tow hitch installation guide for a shot of where it's located. I'm curious if it's as simple as tapping into those wires for a 7-pin connection.

FYI I can confirm the Hyundai Palisade manual says it's only 350lb tongue weight

PS sorry all, I love the Telluride but our Palisade is our 7th Hyundai purchase so have to please the wife Although I'm loving the digital instrument cluster, I MISS MY SHIFTER!!! Not a fan of the push-by-wire system . But we're all part of the same family guys! Lol

@mikeg112 how much markup did you pay to become this pallysayder??

Paid MSRP! I received an automated email from a dealer here in NorCal that had MSRP on the email and they ended up honoring it. Showed up when the car was still going thru PDI. They ended up honoring the deal before marking it up $5K. Bay Area dealers are asking now $5-10K market adjustment. Also managed to get 1.9% 60 month financing, but was not eligible for any other rebates or offers.

Are there any specs or ratings stamped on the hitch?

 

[Tellmeride]

Not sure if I saw anything like that, already threw away the box but can check the manual tomorrow.
