Volkswagen does not recommend installing a trailer hitch on your
vehicle. Your Volkswagen was mainly designed for carrying
passengers. If you plan to tow a trailer, please remember your
vehicle will be performing a job for which it was not primarily
intended. The additional load will affect durability, handling, fuel
economy, and performance, and may require the vehicle to be
serviced more often.
