Question:
Does the New 2021 Sienna hitch C22UR block or interfere the foot-based rear-hatch opening sensor?

We haven't received any definitive feedback on the installation of the Curt # C22UR on the 2021 Toyota Sienna and it limiting the functionality of the hands free liftgate. While it's possible, the large majority of the time when trailer hitch receivers are installed on a vehicle with this feature you simply need to kick your foot to one side of the receiver instead of the middle to activate the lift gate. This isn't an uncommon problem but we haven't seen anything that would lead us to believe that it will be completely rendered unusable.
I've linked the instructions for this hitch installation for you to have a look at, as well.
