I want to install a front mount receiver hitch on my truck. While looking under the front of the vehicle I spotted some sort of electric motor controlled air shield /deflector. I can't find any information in the owner's manual as to what it is or does. Anyone know what this mechanism is and it's function and how it's controlled? It is NOT between the grille and radiator. It is behind the bottom of the radiator and is connected to brackets on the frame rails. I also noted the crossmember support underneath the engine between the frame rails is perforated. I imagine this is also for better air flow underneath the engine and transmission as there are factory skid plates under vehicle [off road package].
