Just bought my passport in the last month and this hitch which i am still waiting for Honda Canada to forward to the dealer to install. At this time all I can find out is that the parts are back-ordered and there is no solid timeline on when they might be available.
Another question that Honda Canada is unable to answer is for any information with installing a a controller for trailer brakes. There is no OEM controller available and they are discouraging installing an aftermarket one as it "may" interfere with the Canbus electrical system...In fact though this optional hitch package ($2500+ installed bought with the vehicle) come with both 4 and 7 pin setups they discourage making use of the 7 pin (needed for trailer brakes) as it can/may cause all sorts of faults though they wont say which faults.
Has anyone in this forum installed the this hitch with the trailer brake controller? What were your experiences getting it installed? Experiences towing with this set up? How about anyone with this hitch set up on a pilot?
Many thanks for any responses.
