  1. We have a hybrid, a 2013 Ford C-Max which we towed some shortly after purchasing it. We got off the road for a few years and now are starting to travel again. The C-Max is a great little around town car, but when towed, using a Blue Ox Patriot brake, after about 3 -4 hours we start to get error messages. The Ford manual explains the error light as : It will illuminate when a powertrain or high-voltage charge system fault has been detected. If the indicator stays on, or continues to come on, contact your authorized dealer as soon as possible." I suspect that most dealerships will be unable to resolve this issue, so I haven't taken it to them. Another complicating factor is the fact that the C-Max is a low profile car and that even with a 10" drop hitch, there is 5" more drop to the Blue Ox baseplate; therfore I am hesitant to run without braking system. Thanks for any ideas. Phil D.
