My wife and I have RV'd in 46 of the lower 48 states and have had tow vehicle issues nearly every time. We now have a 2011 Ford Edge and attempted to follow the instructions in their handbook with little luck. The car's battery would fail every time. Finally, a service person at a Camping World suggested simply removing the negative cable from the vehicle each time. Be sure you keep a key to enter the car afterwards. We still had to be sure to not leave the emergency brake engaged, and put the vehicle in neutral. We also purchased a set of stop lights with a magnetic base to mount on the rear roof of the tow vehicle and connected it to the RV's brake lights. We have not had an issue since. I keep a pair of work gloves, and a socket wrench inside the rear passenger door to reconnect the terminal each time we disconnect the car. I don't know if this is recommended. But, it works for us.
