How does Pro Trailer Hitch Assist work?<\/span> <\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Pro Trailer Hitch Assist aligns the hitch ball and trailer using a rear camera and rear corner radars to sense its surroundings. It takes care of modulating your truck\u2019s speed, steering your truck, and braking as needed to put your truck in the right place. All you have to do is press a button and monitor the situation. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
