Safety factor, that’s the word he used. Sorry to bring this up, just had no idea and thought it was interesting.

So what’s your recommendation? See if GM can change the hitch out for one rated higher?

I suggest shopping for a class 4 hitch and install it yourself. Last place I would go to rectify this situation is the dealer. Most dealers will not be qualified to fix this for you.

What vehicle do you have again?

‘17 Yukon 4x4 with “max tow” lol. Sure glad I dropped $60k+ on this for towing, only to learn now I need to spend yet more money on it. Effing joke.

Actually now that I look again, this sticker is referring only to tongue weight? Idk

Can’t read that part number or hitch tag very clearly

Woohooooo!! According to GM forums this is a recent change as the 15-16 I was reading about didn’t have it.

Thx for confirming.
