ONLY annoyance is that when you select reverse the rear park sensors make noise the whole time you are reversing. Bit of a pain but very temporary.

I am geeky about stuff - but once you have lived with the hitch installed - you never notice it. Not worth the $$$ for invisi hitch in my humble opinion.
I just did this last week .. I installed the Curt $190.00

I also installed the wiring myself... Tekonsha 4 flat kit 60 bucks

knock on wood.. no problems, no warnings, no codes or any type of message, except that you get the noise as long as you are in reverse. but after reading all your comments, I am worried if something goes wrong with electrical, will it void the warranty.....
