We have a 2017 Buick Envision FWD Essence with the 2.5L; 6-Spd Auto.
We would like to tow a small (under 3,000lbs) travel trailer with it, but as per the manual, maximum towing capacity is 1,500lbs with GM hitch p/n84245127.
Yet, Curt sells a hitch with a 3,500lb capacity and Draw-Tite sells a hitch with a 4,500lb capacity.
Is it safe to install one of these hitches and use it on the Envision to tow a small travel
trailer? If so, are any modification that needed to the engine and transmission to safely tow?
Any and all advise will be appreciated.
